Question:

In ΔPQR, QT ⊥ PR and S is a point on QR such that ∠PSQ = x°. If ∠TQR = 48° and ∠SPR = 34°, then the value of x° is.

Options:

78°

88°

76°

80°

Correct Answer:

76°

Explanation:

In ΔPOT,

∠POT = 180° - (90° + 34°) = 56°

∠POT = ∠QOS = 56° (vertical opposite angle)

∠PSQ = x° = 180° - (56° + 48°) = 76°
