Question

O and C are the respectively orthocentre and circumcentre of ∆PQR. The line PO is extended which intersect line QR at S. such that, ∠QCR = 140°, ∠PQS = 58°. Find ∠RPS = ?

A 29° Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
B 38° Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
C 41° Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
D 32° Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

Solution

In ∆ PQS  ∠QPS + ∠PQS + ∠PSQ = 180° ∠QPS + 58° + 90° = 180° ∠QPS = 32° ∠QCR = 2∠QPR (∠QCR)/2 = ∠QPR 140/2 = ∠QPS + ∠RPS 70° = 32° + ∠RPS ∠RPS = 38°
