  • A 20o
  • B 25o
  • C 30o
  • D 35o
Correct Answer: Option B
Explanation:
< PSR = \(\frac{1}{2}\)(180o) = 90o (angle substended by a semi-circle)
∴ < TSR = 90o
< SRT = 90o - 30o = 60o
< PRS = 90o - 35o = 55o
< PRQ = 180 - (60o + 55o) = 180 - 115o = 65o
< SQR = 35o(angles in the same segment)
< QSR + < SRQ + < SQR = 180o
< QSR + 120o + 35o = 180o
< QSR + 155 = 180o
< QSR = 180o - 155o
= 25o
