in figure ABCD is a square. if angle PQR=90 and PB=QC=DR, prove that angle QPR=45.
Plz answer it fast i need it right now

∴ PB=RC=x
⇒AP=x
If QC=RC=x ∴∠CRQ=∠RCQ=
Since ∠PRC=
∴∠PRQ=
and sum of angles a triangle is
∴∠PQR= and ∠PRQ=
∴∠QPR=-(+)=
we can say thatCD = BC(sides of square).....eq.1
CD=CR + DR......eq2
BC= BQ + QC......eq3
from all the above 3 equations we can easily said that CR+DR=BQ+QC
but DR=QC (given)
so..CR=BQ
Now in triangle PBQ and triangle RCQ
PB=QC (given)
angle PBQ= angle RCQ (each of 90°)
BQ=RC (proved above)
by SAS congruence axiom triangle PBQ and triangle RCQ are congruent
this implies that PQ=RQ(cpct)
in triangle PQR
PQ=RQ(proved above)
so angle QRP = angle QPR as angles opp. to equal sides are equal
by angle sum property of triangle PQR
angle PQR + angle QRP + angle QPR = 180°
90° + 2 (angle QPR) = 180° ( it is given that angle PQR =90° nd it is proved above that angle QPR = angle QRP)
2(angle QPR)= 180° - 90°= 90°
Angle QPR=90°÷ 2 =45°
HENCE PROVED
hope that it helps u....
