Question

In the given figure QP || RT. Find the values of x and y.

Sum

Solution

QP || RT and PR is a transversal.

∴ ∠QPR = ∠PRT  ......[Alternate interior angles]

⇒ x = 70°

Now, OP || RT and OR is a transversal.

∴ ∠PQR + ∠QRT = 180°  ......[Co-interior angles]

⇒ 30° + y + 70° = 180°

⇒ y = 180° – 30° – 70° = 80°

Thus, x = 70° and y = 80°
