Question
Find: a) QR
b) πβ πππ

Hint:
Observe the figure carefully and notice which sides/ angles are equal
The correct answer is: a) QR = 22 inches, b) β πππ = 90
SOL β (a) In the figure, it is shown that PQ = QR and
PQ = 22 in.
Β QR = 22 inches
(b) PR is a straight line
β PQR = 180Β°
β PQT + β RQT = 180°   ---- (1)
It is given that β RQT = 90Β°
Substituting in (1)
We get, β PQT + 90Β° = 180Β°
β PQT = 180Β° - 90Β°
β PQT = 90Β°.
