Question

Rays PQ and PS are perpendicular to each other.

What is the measure of LRPS plzzzzz

Answer 1

m<RPS = 53 degrees

Explanation:

Find the diagram attached

From the diagram shown;

m<QPR + m<RPS = 90

Given that;

m<QPR = x

m<RPS = x+16

Substitute into the formula;

m<QPR + m<RPS = 90

x+x+16 = 90

2x+16 = 90

2x = 90-16

2x = 74

x = 74/2

x = 37degrees

Get m<RPS;

Since m<RPS = x+16

m<RPS = 37 + 16

m<RPS = 53 degrees
