Answer:

∠ PTS = 55°

Explanation:

∠ PTSand ∠ QTR are vertically opposite angles and are congruent , then

∠ PTS = ∠ QTR ( substitute values )

11(y - 10) = 4y - 5 ← distribute parenthesis on left side

11y - 110 = 4y - 5 ( subtract 4y from both sides )

11y - 4y - 110 = 4y - 4y - 5 ( simplify both sides )

7y - 110 = - 5 ( add 110 to both sides )

7y - 110 + 110 = - 5 + 110 ( simplify both sides )

7y = 105 ( divide both sides by 7 )


(7)/(7) y =
(105)/(7) , that is

y = 15

Then

∠ PTS = 11(y - 10) = 11(15 - 10) = 11 × 5 = 55°
