Answer:

Option 2: 17.4

Explanation:

PR = SQ = 33.5

SQ = ST + TQ

ST = 16.1 and SQ = 33.5

33.5 = 16.3 + TQ

TQ = 33.5 - 16.1 = 17.4

Answer:


TQ=17.4

Explanation:

In the given figure:
PS=QR

Therefore,
PR=QS

Given:


PR=33.5\\ ST= 16.1


PR=QS=33.5


QS=TQ+ST\\\\33.5=TQ+16.1\\\\TQ=33.5-16.1\\\\TQ=17.4

So,


TQ=17.4
