Answer:Given Prove

PSUR is a rectangle QS = RT

PQ = TU

Proof:

Since PSUR is a rectangle, we know that opposite sides are parallel.

Therefore, PQ and TU are parallel.

Also, PSUR is a rectangle, so the angles P and R are right angles.

Therefore, angles Q and S are also right angles.

Since PQ and TU are parallel, and angles Q and S are right angles, we know that QS and RT are corresponding angles.

Therefore, QS=RT

QED.
