Question 1 Report

In the figure, PQRS is a circle with ST||RQ. Find the value of x if PT = PS

Answer Details
< PST = < RQT = x(corresponding angle)

< PST = < PTS = < PTS x (PS = PT0

< SRQ = < SPT = 180 ∘  (sum of < on straight line)

< SPT = 180 ∘  - 110 ∘  = 70 ∘

in < SPT, < PST = PTS = < PSt = 180 ∘

2x + 70 = 180 ∘

2x = 180 ∘  - 70 ∘  = 110 ∘

x =  110 o 2  = 55
