Answer:
50°
Step-by-step explanation:
There are two ways to solve this
First way:
We know that exterior angle is the sum of opposite interior angles
i.e
∠RPQ+∠PRQ=140°
or 90°+∠PRQ=140°
or ∠PRQ=140°-90°
therefore ∠PRQ= 50°
Second way:
140° and ∠PQR are on straight line
i.e they form linear pair
therefore ∠PQR=180°-140°
∠PQR=40°
Now, in ∆PQR
∠PQR+∠PRQ+∠RPQ=180° ............[ANGLE SUM PROPERTY OF TRIANGLE]
or 40°+∠PRQ+90°=180°
or ∠PRQ=180°-40°-90°
or ∠PRQ=50°
Hope this is helpful
