PSLE NPQR is a trapezium with NP parallel to RQ. NTP and STR are straight lines and NS = SP. ∠SNR = 99°.
- Find ∠NRT.
- Find ∠PST.
(a)
∠NRT
= 180° - 99° - 26°
= 55° (Angles sum of triangle)
(b)
∠NTR
= 66° (Alternate angles)
∠PNS
= 66° - 26°
= 40° (Exterior angle of a triangle)
∠PST
= 180° - 40° - 40° - 26°
= 74° (Angles sum of triangle)
Answer(s): (a) 55°; (b) 74°
