Correct Answer: Option D
Explanation:
Since < URP = 25°, then < XPU = 4 x 25° = 100°
\(\therefore\) < TPQ = 180° - 100° = 80°
\(\therefore\) < PQT = 180° - (80° + 25°) = 75°
< SQR = 75° - 25° = 50° (exterior angle = 2 opp interior angles)
\(\therefore\) < USQ = 180° - 50° = 130°
Since < URP = 25°, then < XPU = 4 x 25° = 100°
\(\therefore\) < TPQ = 180° - 100° = 80°
\(\therefore\) < PQT = 180° - (80° + 25°) = 75°
< SQR = 75° - 25° = 50° (exterior angle = 2 opp interior angles)
\(\therefore\) < USQ = 180° - 50° = 130°
