4. In Fig. 6.31, if PQ ST,
PQR = 110° and
RST = 130°, find
QRS.
[Hint: Draw a line parallel to ST through point R.]
Draw a line AB parallel to the ST through R.
Since PQ || ST and ST || AB
AB || PQ
PQR =
QRB = 110° (Alternate interior angles)
QRB =
QRS +
SRB .............(i)
Again, RST +
SRB = 180° (Interior angles of two parallels ST and RB)
=> SRB = 180° - 130° = 50° (
RST = 130° )
Thus, QRS =
