In adjacent figure, PR > PQ and PS bisects ∠QPR. Prove that ∠PSR > ∠PSQ.
Answers
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
PR > PQ & PS bisects ∠QPR
To prove:
∠PSR > ∠PSQ
Proof:
∠PQR > ∠PRQ — (i) (PR > PQ as angle opposite to larger side is larger.)
∠QPS = ∠RPS — (ii) (PS bisects ∠QPR)
∠PSR = ∠PQR +∠QPS — (iii)
(exterior angle of a triangle equals to the sum of opposite interior angles)
∠PSQ = ∠PRQ + ∠RPS — (iv)
(exterior angle of a triangle equals to the sum of opposite interior angles)
Adding (i) and (ii)
∠PQR + ∠QPS > ∠PRQ + ∠RPS
⇒ ∠PSR > ∠PSQ [from (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv)]

Solution:
PR>PQ (Given)
⇒∠PQR>∠PRQ ....... (1)
(In any triangle, the angle opposite to the longer side is larger.)
We also have ∠PQR+∠QPS+∠PSQ=180° (Angle sum property of triangle)
⇒∠PQR=180°−∠QPS−∠PSQ ......(2)
And, ∠PRQ+∠RPS+∠PSR=180° (Angle sum property of triangle)
⇒∠PRQ=180°−∠PSR−∠RPS ....... (3)
Putting (2) and (3) in (1), we get
180°−∠QPS−∠PSQ>180°−∠PSR−∠RPS
We also have ∠QPS=∠RPS, using this in the above equation, we get
−∠PSQ>−∠PSR
⇒∠PSQ<∠PSR
Hence Proved
hope, this will help you.
