Answer:
x = 66°, y = 56°, and z = 56°
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:- PQRS is a rhombus and ∠SRB = 68°
To find:- x, y and z
Proof:-
We know that,
In a Rhombus,
- Diagonals bisect the angles
- Opposite angles are equal
- Adjoining angles are supplementary
Now,
∠SRB = 68°
Also,
∠SRB + ∠RSP = 180°
68° + ∠RSP = 180°
∠RSP = 180° - 68°
∠RSP = 112° ----- 1
We also know that,
∠RSO = ∠PSO = y ------ 2
Now,
∠RSP = ∠RSO + ∠PSO
From eq.2,
∠RSP = ∠RSO + ∠RSO
∠RSP = 2∠RSO
From eq.1 and eq.2,
112° = 2y
y = 112/2
y = 56°
We also know that,
∠RSP = ∠RQP
Hence,
∠RQP = 112° ----- 3
And
∠RQS = ∠PQS = z ------ 4
But,
∠RQP = ∠RQS + ∠PQS
From eq.4
∠RQP = ∠PQS + ∠PQS
∠RQP = 2∠PQS
From eq.3 and eq.4,
112° = 2z
z = 112/2
z = 56°
Now, similarly
2∠ARB = ∠SRB
∠ARB = 68°/2
∠ARB = 34° ----- 5
Also,
OR is a straight line,
Thus,
∠OAB + ∠BAR = 180° [Linear Pair]
100° + ∠BAR = 180°
∠BAR = 180° - 100°
∠BAR = 80° ----- 6
In ΔBAR,
∠BAR + ∠RBA + ∠ARB = 180° [Angle Sum Property]
From eq.5 and eq.6,
80° + x + 34° = 180°
x + 114° = 180°
x = 180° - 114°
x = 66°
Hence,
x = 66°, y = 56°, and z = 56°
