In the diagram, NQ//TS, ∠RTS = 50° and ∠PRT = 100°. Find the value of ∠NPR

  • A. 110°
  • B. 130°
  • C. 140°
  • D. 150°

Correct Answer: B. 130°

Explanation

< TSR = 180 - (80 + 50)

= 180 - (130)

= 50\(^o\)

< QPR = < TSR corresponding < s

< NPR + QPR = < NPR

180\(^o\) - < QPR = < NPR

180\(^o\) - 50 = < NPR

< NPR = 130\(^o\)
