Answer:
m∠ TRS = 60° , m∠ SRW = 120°
Step-by-step explanation:
First, find x
∠TRS = ∠VRW (vertically opposite angles are equal)
x + 40° = 3x
x - 3x = -40
-2x = -40
x = -40/-2
x = 20
m∠ TRS = 60° [x + 40 = 20+40 = 60]
m∠ SRW + m∠ TRS = 180° (linear pair)
m∠ SRW + 60° = 180°
m∠ SRW = 180° - 60°
m∠ SRW = 120°

Sec^2 x - 1 = tan^2x
Proof:
Sec^2x = 1+ tan^2x
1/cos^2x = 1 + sin^2x/cos^2x
<span>1/cos^2x - sin^2x/cos^2x = 1
</span>Using common denominator:
(1-sin^2x)/cos^2x = 1
sin^2x + cos^2 x = 1
cos^2 x = 1 - sin^2x
Substituting :
cos^2x/<span>cos^2x = 1
</span>1 = 1
