Given, PQ⊥PS,PQ∥SR,∠SQR=28
∘
,∠QRT=65
∘
According to the question,
x+∠SQR=∠QRT (Alternate angles as QR is transversal.)
⇒x+28
∘
=65
∘
⇒x=37
∘
Also ∠QSR=x
⇒∠QSR=37
∘
Also ∠QRS+∠QRT=180
∘
(Linear pair)
⇒∠QRS+65
∘
=180
∘
⇒∠QRS=115
∘
Now, ∠P+∠Q+∠R+∠S=360
∘
(Sum of the angles in a quadrilateral.)
⇒90
∘
+65
∘
+115
∘
+∠S=360
∘
⇒270
∘
+y+∠QSR=360
∘
⇒270
∘
+y+37
∘
=360
∘
⇒307
∘
+y=360
∘
⇒y=53
