Answer:
In an equilateral ∆,
If one angle is of 90°
then the remaining two angles ata of equal measure.
Let that angles be x
180° - 90°= 2x
90° = 2x
90°/2 = x
45° = x
Angle RPQ + angle y = 180° ----(angles in linear pair are supplementary)
45° + y = 180°
y = 180° - 45°
y = 135°

Answer:
x=45° and y=135°
Step-by-step explanation:
given: PQ=QR ; ∠PQR=90°
Solution:
∵PQ=QR
∴∠QPR=∠QRP (angle opposite to equal sides are equal)
by angle sum property we know that
∠QPR+∠QRP+∠PQR=180°
2∠QRP+90°=180° (∵∠QPR=∠QRP; ∠PQR=90°)
2∠QRP=90°
∠QRP=45°= x
also∠QPR=45°
Now as we can see that ∠QPR and ∠y forms linear pair
so,
∠QPR+∠y=180°
∠y=180°- ∠QPR
∠y=180°-45°
∠y=135°
