the side QR of triangle PQR is produced to a point S. If the bisectors of angle PQR and angle PRS meet at a point T, then prove that Angle QTR = 1/2 angle QPR.
I have an exam tomorrow!
I need the answer quick!!!!!
In ΔQTR, ∠TRS is an exterior angle.
∠QTR + ∠TQR = ∠TRS
∠QTR = ∠TRS − ∠TQR (1)
For ΔPQR, ∠PRS is an external angle.
∠QPR + ∠PQR = ∠PRS
∠QPR + 2∠TQR = 2∠TRS (As QT and RT are angle bisectors)
∠QPR = 2(∠TRS − ∠TQR)
∠QPR = 2∠QTR [By using equation (1)]
∠QTR = ∠QPR
