If lines PQ and RS intersect at point T, such that ∠PRT = 40°, ∠RPT = 95° and ∠TSQ= 75°, find ∠SQT. In Fig. 6.42.

Answer:
We have,
lines PQ and RS intersect at point T, such that \angle PRT = 40°, \angle RPT = 95° and \angle TSQ = 75°
In \DeltaPRT, by using angle sum property
\anglePRT + \anglePTR + \angleTPR = 180^0
So, \anglePTR = 180^0 -95^0-40^0
\Rightarrow \angle PTR = 45^0
Since lines, PQ and RS intersect at point T
therefore, \anglePTR = \angleQTS (Vertically opposite angles)
\angleQTS = 45^0
Now, in \DeltaQTS,
By using angle sum property
\angleTSQ + \angleSTQ + \angleSQT = 180^0
So, \angleSQT = 180^0-45^0-75^0
\therefore \angle SQT = 60^0
∠PRT=40°
∠RPT=95°
∠TSQ=75°
IN ΔPRT
∠PRT+∠RTP+∠TPR=180°(∠s SUM PROPERTY)
40°+∠RTP+95°=180°
∠RTP=45°
∠RTP=∠QST=45°(VERTICALLY OPPOSITE ∠s)
NOW , IN ΔQST
∠T+∠Q+∠S=180°
45°+∠Q+75°=180°
∠Q=60°
