What is m∠Q?
A.
58°
B.
56°
C.
24°
D.
124°

Answer 1

Answer:

B. 56°

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that m∠R is 66° and m∠T is 122°.

We can apply the supplementary rule since ∠S and ∠T are a linear pair. So, we can use ∠T to find ∠S through 180° - 122° = 58°.

Now, we can use ∠R and ∠S to find ∠Q.

66° + 58° = 124°

180° - 124° = 56°

Answer 2

Answer:

m∠Q is 56°.

Step-by-step explanation:

An exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the two interior angles that are not adjacent to that exterior angle.

In this case, ∠T is an exterior angle of the triangle, and ∠Q and ∠R are the two interior angles that are not adjacent to ∠T.

So, the measure of ∠T is equal to the sum of the measure of ∠Q and the measure of ∠R.

Therefore, m∠Q is 56°.
