Answer:
34°
Step-by-step explanation:
A rhombus has opposite angles equal
therefore angle R= angle P
and angle S= angle Q
(Let S and Q be x)
By angle sum property of a quadrilateral
angle P + angle Q + angle R + angle S = 360°
72+x+72+x=360
144+2x= 360
2x= 360-144
2x= 216
x= 216/2
x= 108
therefore angle S= angle Q= 108°
seg. SQ bisects angle Q
So angle SQP= 1/2 angle Q
108×1/2=54°
If we observe carefully,
seg PQ intersects seg ST making angles in a linear pair. And sum of angles in a linear pair is 180°
So, angle SQP =54° (proved)
angle SQP+ angle PQT = 180° (Linear pair angles)
54+ angle PQT = 180°
angle PQT = 180-54
angle PQT = 126°.
Let us consider triangle PQT
AngleP+angle Q+angle T= 180° (angle sum property of triangle)
20+126+angle T= 180
146+angle T= 180
angle T= 180-146
angle T= 34°
therefore y= 34°
