The measure of the angle ∠PQR is 90 degrees

<h3>How to prove that ∠PQR is 90 degrees?</h3>

The equation of the line PQ is given as:

3x - y - 2 = 0

The coordinates of the QR are given as:

(0, -2) and (6, -4)

Make y the subject in 3x - y - 2 = 0

y = 3x - 2

The slope of the above line is

m1 = 3

Next, we calculate the slope (m2) of points Q and R.

So, we have:

m2 = (y2- y1)/(x2 - x1)

This gives

m2 = (-4 + 2)/(6 - 0)

Evaluate

m2 = -1/3

The slopes of perpendicular lines are opposite reciprocals.

m1 = 3 and m2 = -1/3 are opposite reciprocals.

This means the lines PQ and QR are perpendicular lines.

The angle at the point of perpendicularity is 90 degrees

Hence, the measure of the angle ∠PQR is 90 degrees
