hope it's help don't need to mark me brainliest
Answer:
x = y = 45°
Step-by-step explanation:
here, PQRS is a square and we know that opposite sides of square are equal and parallel and all angles of square is of 90°.
∵ B and C are mid points of PS and QR
so, PS = QR [opposite sides of square are equal]
∴ PS = QR ⇒ PB = QC
and, If B and C are mid points the it is equal and parallel to side PQ and SR.
PQ = BC = SR and PQ║BC║SR
now, In ΔAQC, AQ = QC [half of sides of square are equal]
∴ ∠AQC + ∠ACQ + ∠QAC = 180° [Angle sum property of Δ]
⇒ 90° + 2∠ACQ = 180° [angle opposite to equal sides are equal]
⇒ 2∠ACQ = 180° - 90°
⇒ ∠ACQ = 45°
hence, ∠QAC = ∠ACQ = 45°
similarly, In ΔAPB, ∠PAB = ∠PBA = 45°
now, ∠PBA = x° = 45°
∵ PQ║BC and AC is transversal
∠ACB = QAC = y° = 45°
∴ x° = y° = 45°
hope it will help you.
