Correct Answer: Option A
Explanation:
RSP = 90 < substance in semi a circle
RPS = 180 - (90 + 24)
= 180 - (114)
= 66
TPS = 180 - 66
= 114
RST = 24
< STR = 180 - (114 + 24)
= 180 - 138
= 42\(^o\)
RSP = 90 < substance in semi a circle
RPS = 180 - (90 + 24)
= 180 - (114)
= 66
TPS = 180 - 66
= 114
RST = 24
< STR = 180 - (114 + 24)
= 180 - 138
= 42\(^o\)
