Answer:
:· X = 51
:· angle PQS = 30°
:· angle PSR = 60°
Step-by-step explanation:
angle P = 2x + 18
but,
angle P and angle R is corresponding angle of similar triangle
:· angle P = 2x + 18 = 120°
__2x = 120 - 18
__ x = 102/2
__ x = 51° ---------------------------- ( 1 )
angle QSR = 180 - angle SQR - Angle QRS
= 180 -30 -120 = 30 ° ---- ( properties of triangle )
:· angle QSR = 30° ------------------------ ( 2 )
angle PSR = Angle PSQ + QSR
But,
angle PSQ = angle QSR ------- ( Corresponding angles of similar triangles )
:· Angle PSR = 2 × QSR
= 2 × 30 -------- { by equations (2) }
= 60°
:· X = 51
:· angle PQS = 30°
:· angle PSR = 60° --------- ( 3 )
