Question

Points P, Q, and S are collinear. What is mZRQS?
R
((x + 1)
(3x – 5)°
s

Answer 1

Answer:

  m∠RQS = 47°

Step-by-step explanation:

The collinear points form a "straight angle," one whose measure is 180°. That is the sum of the marked values:

  (3x  -5) +(x +1) = 180

  4x = 184

  x = 46

  m∠RQS = (x+1)° = (46+1)°

  m∠RQS = 47°
