Suppose ray QS bisects angle PQR. The measure of angle PQS = (5y - 1)º and the measure of angle PQR = (8y + 12)º. Find the measure of angle PQS. (Hint: First sketch PQR with QS as its bisector. Label the sketch carefully. Set up an equation, find y, then find PQS.)

anonymous · Answer

we know that a triangle adds up to 180 so since we made a bisector we have made I believe two right angles!!

anonymous · Answer

What I want to say is that that the angles p and r are equal so 

5y -1 = 4y +6 
then solve for y and you find that the value of y = 7
