Answer:

D


Explanation:

In Triange PCD, 38° angle [∠PCD] is opposite of the side with length 8.

In Triangle RCD, the angle opposite of side with length 8 should have equal measure.


So ∠RCD = 38°

We know that ∠PCR = ∠PCD + ∠RCD

Hence, ∠PCR = 38° + 38° = 76°

Answer choice D is right.

Answer:

D) 76 degrees

Explanation:

In the given figure, ∠P = ∠R = 90

∠CDR = ∠CDP because the side PD= DR = 8

Therefore, ∠DCR = ∠DCP = 38 degrees.

∠PCR = ∠PCD + ∠DCR

∠PCR = 38 + 38

∠PCR = 76 degrees

Thank you.
