SOLUTION
Given,
In ∆PQR
PQ= QR (given)
angle PRS (exterior angle= 100°)
=) Let PQ= angle x & similarly QR= x
=) angle PRS+ angle PQS= 180°
=) 100°+angle PQS 180°
=) PQS= (180-100)°
=) angle PQS= 80°
=) angle PQS= 80°
Then similar as angle PQS= angle QPR
So, angle QPR = 80°
Hope it helps ☺️
Que. in triangle pqr PQ = QR and angle PRS(exterior angle) =100°.
Fing angle QPR.
As per the information given in the question
PQ = QR
PRS(exterior angle) =100°
Accordin to question we have to find angle QPR
The exterior angle PRS = 100°
The exterior angle PRS and the interior angle PRQ are on straight line.
the sum of angles on a straight line is equal to 180°. So,
angle PRS + angle PRQ = 180°
100° + angle PRQ = 180°
angle PRQ = 180° - 100°
angle PRQ = 80°.
As per the information given in the question PQ = QR
So the given ∆PQR is isosceles.
As per the property of isosceles triangle the angles opposite to equal sides are also equal to each other.
angle PRQ = angle QPR So,
angle QPR = 80°
