In the figure, PQRS is a circle with ST||RQ. Find the value of x if PT = pS
A
70o
B
55o
C
40o
D
35o
correct option: b

< PST = < RQT = x(corresponding angle)

< PST = < PTS = < PTS x (PS = PT0

< SRQ = < SPT = 180o (sum of < on straight line)

< SPT = 180o - 110o = 70o

in < SPT, < PST = PTS = < PSt = 180o

2x + 70 = 180o

2x = 180o - 70o = 110o

x = (\frac{110^o}{2}) = 55o
