Answer:
The measure of angle QPR is 45°.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given a square ABCD.
P, Q, R are the points on AB, BC and CD respectively.
The measures of lengths of AP, BQ and CR are same i.e., AP = BQ = CR
And Angle PQR =
Since ABCD is a square, AB = BC
Given AP = BQ
Thus AB − AP = BC − BQ
In the triangles PBQ and CQR, are the angles of squares, hence equal to
Since PB = CQ and given BQ = CR
From Side-Angle-Side(SAS) rule, the two triangles are said to be congruent if any two sides and the angle included between the sides of two triangle are equal.
Therefore,
From corresponding parts of congruent triangles (CPCT) rule, if two triangles are congruent, then all of their corresponding angles and sides are congruent.
we get
And hence the triangle PQR is an isosceles triangle.
If PQ = QR then,
Given
In a triangle, sum of angles is equal to 180°.
Therefore, the measure of angle QPR is 45°.
