Question : In the given figure, $\Delta QPS \cong \Delta SRQ $. Find the measure of $\angle PSR$.
Option 1: 64°
Option 2: 74°
Option 3: 52°
Option 4: 82°
Correct Answer: 74°
Solution : $\triangle$QPS = $\triangle$SRQ $\angle$QPS = $\angle$SRQ (Congruent part of congruent triangles) So, 106° = 2x + 12° ⇒ 106° – 12° = 2x ⇒ 94° = 2x $\therefore$ x = 47° $\angle$QPS = $\angle$SRQ = 106° So, PQRS is a parallelogram. $\angle$QSR = 180° –
