The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find angles A and B in the cyclic quadrilateral PQRS, given that angle PQR = 135° and the ratio of angles A to B is 2:1. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Given Information**: - Angle PQR = 135° - The ratio of angles A to B = 2:1 2. **Use the Property of Cyclic Quadrilaterals**: - In a cyclic quadrilateral, the sum of opposite angles is 180°. Therefore, we can find angle S: \[ \text{Angle S} + \text{Angle Q} = 180° \] Since angle Q is angle PQR, we have: \[ \text{Angle S} + 135° = 180° \] \[ \text{Angle S} = 180° - 135° = 45° \] 3. **Determine Angle PQA**: - Since SP and RQ are produced to meet at point A, angle PQA is supplementary to angle PQR: \[ \text{Angle PQA} + \text{Angle PQR} = 180° \] \[ \text{Angle PQA} + 135° = 180° \] \[ \text{Angle PQA} = 180° - 135° = 45° \] 4. **Identify Angles at Point B**: - Angle A and angle B are formed by the intersection of the extended lines at points A and B. Since angle PQA = 45°, angle A can be expressed in terms of angle B: \[ \text{Angle SRQ} = \text{Angle S} + \text{Angle B} = 45° + \text{Angle B} \] 5. **Set Up the Equation Using the Ratio**: - Let angle B = x. Then angle A = 2x. The sum of angles around point B gives: \[ 45° + 45° + x + 2x = 180° \] Simplifying this, we have: \[ 90° + 3x = 180° \] \[ 3x = 180° - 90° = 90° \] \[ x = 30° \] 6. **Calculate Angles A and B**: - Angle B = x = 30° - Angle A = 2x = 2(30°) = 60° ### Final Answer: - Angle A = 60° - Angle B = 30°
