Corrected Question

Quadrilateral QRST is inscribed in circle W as shown below. The measure of ∠QRS is 12 degrees less than three times the measure of ∠QTS and

mRQT=mRST .

(a)Determine the measure of Angle QTS .

(b)What is the common measure of angles RQT and RST ?

(a)48 degrees

(b)90 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Theorem: Opposite angles of a cyclic quadrilateral are supplementary.

(a)

Let the measure of ∠QTS=x

Therefore: m∠QRS=3x-12

∠QTS and ∠QRS are opposite angles of a cyclic quadrilateral. By the theorem above:

x+3x-12=180

4x=180+12

4x=192

x=48 degrees

The measure of angle QTS is 48 degrees.

(b)Since mRQT=mRST

mRQT and mRST are opposite angles of a cyclic quadrilateral

Therefore:

mRQT+mRST=180 degrees

2mRQT=180

mRQT=90 degrees

Therefore, the common measure of RQT and RST is 90 degrees.

hi there!

the answer to this question is d: 35

step-by-step explanation:

5 to the power of 2 is 25

2 multiplied by 5 is 10

then you add the 2 numbers and you get 35
