In Fig. 8.47, lines PQ and RS intersect each other at point O. If POR : ROQ = 5 : 7, find all the angles.


Given,

POR and ROP is linear pair


POR + ROP = 180o


Given that,


POR = ROP = 5: 1


Therefore,


POR = * 180o = 75o


Similarly,


ROQ = 105o


Now,


POS = ROQ = 105o(Vertically opposite angles)


Therefore,


SOQ = POR = 75o(Vertically opposite angles)
