in the given figure PQ is parallel to RS and EF is parallel to QS.if angle PQS=60 then the measure of angle RFE is
Answers
the angle of RFE is 30 angle
Given:
Angle PQS=60°
To find:
The measure of angle RFE
Solution:
The measure of angle RFE is 120°.
We can find the measure by following the given steps-
We know that the lines PQ and RS are parallel.
Similarly, EF and QS are parallel.
QS is a transversal and so, angle PQS and angle QSF are supplementary.
So, angle PQS+angle QSF=180°
We are given that the angle PQS=60°.
On putting the value,
60°+angle QSF=180°
Angle QSF=180°-60°
Angle QSF=120°
Similarly, angle QSF and angle EFS are also supplementary.
So, angle QSF+angle EFS=180°
120°+angle EFS=180°
Angle EFS=180°-120°
Angle EFS=60°
SR is a straight line.
Angle EFS and angle RFE form a linear pair.
So, angle EFS+angle RFE=180°
Using the value,
60°+angle RFE=180°
Angle RFE=180°-60°
Angle RFE=120°
Therefore, the measure of angle RFE is 120°.
