Question
PQRS is a parallelogram whose diagonals intersect at M.
If ∠PMS = 54°, ∠QSR = 25° and ∠SQR = 30° ; find :
(i) ∠RPS
(ii) ∠PRS
(iii) ∠PSR.
Solution
Given : ||gm PQRS in which diagonals PR & QS intersect at M.
∠PMS = 54° ; ∠QSR = 25° and ∠SQR=30°
To find : (i) ∠RPS (ii) ∠PRS (iii) ∠PSR
Proof : QR || PS
⇒ ∠PSQ = ∠SQR (Alternate ∠s)
But ∠SQR = 30° (Given)
∠PSQ = 30°
In ∆SMP,
∠PMS + ∠ PSM +∠MPS = 180° or 54° + 30° + ∠RPS
= 180°
∠RPS = 180°- 84° = 96°
Now ∠PRS + ∠RSQ = ∠PMS
∠PRS + 25° =54°
∠PRS = 54° – 25° = 29°
∠PSR = ∠PSQ + ∠RSQ = 30°+25° = 55°
Hence (i) ∠RPS = 96° (ii) ∠PRS = 29° (iii) ∠PSR = 55°
