In the diagram, QR//ST, /PQ/ = /PR/ and o. Find the value of y
- A.
105o - B.
110o - C.
130o - D.
150o
Correct Answer: Option A
Explanation
In (bigtriangleup) PQR,
Q = S = 75o (Corresponding angle)
R = Q = 75o (Base angles of an isosceles (bigtriangleup))
But, y + 75o = 180o (Sum of angles in a straight line)
y = 180 – 75
y = 105o
