Points P, Q, and S are collinear. What is m∠PQR? Straight angle P Q S is divided into 2 angles, P Q R and R Q S, by ray Q R. Angle P Q R has measure 3 x minus 5 degrees and angle R Q S has measure x plus 1 degrees. m∠PQR =

Step-by-step explanation:

If P, Q and S are collinear, then the three points lies on the same straight line.

If the Straight <P Q S is divided into 2 angles, <P Q R and <R Q S, by ray Q R, then;

<P Q R + <R Q S = 180

Given

<R Q S =x+1

<P Q R = 3x-5

Substitute the given expression into the formula and calculate x;

3x-5+x+1 = 180

collect like terms

3x+x - 5+1 = 180

4x-4 = 180

4x = 180+4

4x = 184

divide both sides by 4

4x/4 = 184/4

x = 46°

To get m∠PQR, we will substitute x = 46 into the expression for m∠PQR.

m∠PQR = 3x-5

m∠PQR = 3(46) - 5

m∠PQR = 138 - 5

m∠PQR = 133°

Hence the measure of angle m∠PQR is 133°

36/60

36/2=18

60/2=30

18/30

18/3=6

30/3=10

6/10

6/2=3

10/2=5

your final answer would be 3/5 of an

hope this !
