Angle Q is supplementary to angle P (42°), so is 138°.

Given, in the figure PR and PS are two tangents. They meet at P. Here angle P given. ∠P = 42°.

If we take a straight line PQ, it will create two triangles.

We can see here angle R and angle S both are right angles.

As here two triangles, so sum of all the angles of the triangles is 180^o + 180^o = 360^o

Now if we subtract the two right angles we will get,

360^o-90^o-90^o = 360^o-180^o = 180^o

That means ∠P+∠Q = 180°

If we substitute the value of angle P we will get,

42^o+Q = 180^o

We can get angle Q by subtracting 42 to both sides. We will get,

42^o+Q-42^o = 180^o-42^o

Q = 180^o-42^o

Q = 138^o

So we have got angle Q, the measurement of ∠Q = 138°.

Find the value of y.<br><br> 5<br> 8<br> 4<br> 2<br><br> 50 Pts!
Vinvika [58]

Answer and Explanation:

Since this is a 30-60-90 triangle, you can use the ratio of side lengths specific to this type of triangle:

x = 4√(2)

y = 2(4) = 8

because where 4 = T,

x = T√2    and     y = 2T

so again:

x = 4\sqrt{2}\\y = 8
