Question

Could you please help me determine how to solve this problem and why I got it wrong?

Answer 1

you got PQR as 50, right?
but RQS is asked
RQS = 90 -PQR = ...

Answer 2

sorry it wouldn't allow me to type

Answer 3

no problem :)

Answer 4

I can't actually see what you typedbefore, it just cuts off. I didn't actually get 50 or anything, I guess because I didn't have the mere idea on how to do it.

Answer 5

PQS is 90,
so PQR will be 50

and RQS = 90 - PQR

Answer 6

PQS : PQR = 9 : 5

90 : PQR = 9 : 5

so, PQR = 50

Answer 7

because 90:50 is 9:5

Answer 8

ohh wow, I didn't see it that way

Answer 9

so you know how to solve it?
