30° .
Solution :-
In ∆PST ,
→ ∠P = 25° (given)
→ PS = ST (given)
So,
→ ∠SPT = ∠PTS = 25° { Angle opposite to equal sides are equal in measure . }
now, in ∆STQ ,
→ ∠QST = ∠SPT + ∠PTS { Exterior angle is equal to sum of opposite interior angles .}
→ ∠QST = 25° + 25° = 50°
So,
→ ∠QST = ∠SQT { since ST = QT . }
then,
→ ∠QST + ∠SQT + ∠STQ = 180° { By angle sum property }
→ 50° + 50° + ∠STQ = 180°
→ 100° + ∠STQ = 180°
→ ∠STQ = 180° - 100°
→ ∠STQ = 80°
Now, Since P - T - R is a straight line .
→ ∠PTS + ∠STQ + ∠QTR = 180°
→ 25° + 80° + ∠QTR = 180°
→ 105° + ∠QTR = 180°
→ ∠QTR = 180° - 105°
→ ∠QTR = 75°
now, in ∆QTR,
→ ∠QTR = ∠TRQ { since QT = QR }
therefore,
→ ∠R = 75° (Ans.)
Hence , ∠R is equal to 75° .
