Question

What are the values of x and y?

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

In figure:

∠PRT+∠RTP+∠TPR=180

O

(angle sum property of triangle)

⇒x+(180

O

−∠RTQ)+60

O

=180

O

(linear pair)

⇒x+(180

O

−97

0

)+60

o

=180

O

⇒x=31

o

Now, ∠PRT+∠TRQ+∠QRS=180

O

(angle of straight line)

⇒x+48

o

+y=180

O

⇒31

o

+48

o

+y=180

O

⇒y=101
