उत्तर

Construction: XY || ST is drawn through point R.

PQ || ST           ...(1) Given

XY || ST            ...(2) By construction

From equations (1) and (2),

PQ || XY             ...(3)

XY || ST By construction

∠RST + ∠SRY = 180°      ...(Sum of interior angles on the same side)

⇒ 130° + ∠SRY = 180°

⇒ ∠SRY = 180° − 130°

⇒ ∠SRY = 50°

PQ || XY                ...(3)

∴ ∠PQR = ∠QRY        ...(Alternate angles)

110° = ∠QRS + ∠SRY

110° = ∠QRS + 50°

∠QRS = 110° − 50°

Thus, ∠QRS = 60°
