Answer:

∠a= 65°, ∠b= 115°, ∠c= 25°

Explanation:

The sum of the angles in a triangle is 180°. This is abbreviated to '∠ sum of ∆'.

∠c +55° +60° +40°= 180° (∠ sum of ∆PQR)

∠c +155°= 180°

∠c= 180° -155°

∠c= 25°

∠a +60° +55°= 180° (∠ sum of ∆PQS)

∠a +115°= 180°

∠a= 180° -115°

∠a= 65°

The sum of the angles on a straight line is 180°. It's abbreviation is 'adj. ∠s on a str. line'.

∠b +∠a= 180° (adj. ∠s on a str. line)

∠b +65°= 180°

∠b= 180° -65°

∠b= 115°
