Question 41

In triangle PQR, the sides PQ and PR are produced to A and B respectively. The bisectors of ∠AQR and ∠BRQ intersect at point O. If ∠QOR = 50°, then what is the value (in degrees) of ∠QPR?

Solution

Given : O is the excentre of $$\triangle$$ PQR and ∠QOR = 50°

To find : $$\angle$$ QPR = $$\theta$$ = ?

Excentre of a triangle = $$90^\circ-\frac{1}{2} \times $$ (Angle opposite to it)

=> $$50^\circ=90^\circ-\frac{\theta}{2}$$

=> $$\frac{\theta}{2}=90-50=40^\circ$$

=> $$\theta=2\times40=80^\circ$$

=> Ans - (C)
