PQRS is a rhombus in which the diagonal PR is produced to T.If angle SRT=152 degree,find x,y and z.
Please check my solution and do any rectifications if needed.
No links plz.
Rhombus PQRS is given.
Diagonal PR is produced to T.
Also, .
We know that in a rhombus, the diagonals bisect each other at right angle.
Therefore,
Now,
In , by angle sum property of a triangle, we get:
Or, (Because O lies on SQ)
We have, .Thus the alternate interior opposite angles must be equal.
Therefore,
In ,we have
Since opposite sides of a rhombus are equal.
Therefore,
Also,
Angles opposite to equal sides are equal.
Thus,
But
Thus,
Hence the required values for x,y and z are , and respectively.
