Answer:

c is correct (look at the picture)

Explanation:

For the first one you have to compare P and Q to determine which is greater or equal or less than to do that you need to subtract

180-60-30= 90

180-45-45= 90

so p=q since their both the same

The sum of the measures of the interior angles of the triangle is equal to 180°.

1. For the first triangle,


60^(\circ)+30^(\circ)+p^(\circ)=180^(\circ).

Then


p^(\circ)=180^(\circ)-30^(\circ)-60^(\circ)=90^(\circ).

2. For the second triangle,


45^(\circ)+45^(\circ)+q^(\circ)=180^(\circ).

Then


q^(\circ)=180^(\circ)-45^(\circ)-45^(\circ)=90^(\circ).

Now you see that


p^(\circ)=q^(\circ).

Answer: correct choice is C
