The correct Answer is:
To find the value of angle QOR in triangle PQR, we will follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify Given Information**: - We have triangle PQR with angle P = 66°. - The sides PQ and PR are extended to points S and T respectively. - The angle bisectors of angles SQR and QRT meet at point O. 2. **Use the Exterior Angle Theorem**: - According to the exterior angle theorem, the exterior angle (angle SQR) is equal to the sum of the two opposite interior angles (angle P and angle Q). - Therefore, angle SQR = angle P + angle Q = 66° + β (where β is angle Q). 3. **Similarly for Angle QRT**: - By the same theorem, angle QRT = angle P + angle R = 66° + α (where α is angle R). 4. **Apply the Angle Sum Property in Triangle PQR**: - The sum of angles in triangle PQR is 180°. - Thus, we have: \[ 66° + α + β = 180° \] - Rearranging gives us: \[ α + β = 180° - 66° = 114° \] 5. **Determine Angles at Point O**: - Since O is the intersection of the angle bisectors, we can express the angles at O: - Angle OQR = Angle OQS = (66° + β) / 2 - Angle ORQ = Angle ORT = (66° + α) / 2 6. **Sum of Angles in Triangle RQO**: - In triangle RQO, we apply the angle sum property again: \[ Angle OQR + Angle ORQ + Angle QOR = 180° \] - Substituting the expressions we found: \[ \left(33° + \frac{β}{2}\right) + \left(33° + \frac{α}{2}\right) + Angle QOR = 180° \] 7. **Combine and Simplify**: - This simplifies to: \[ 66° + \frac{α + β}{2} + Angle QOR = 180° \] - We know from step 4 that α + β = 114°, so: \[ 66° + \frac{114°}{2} + Angle QOR = 180° \] - This further simplifies to: \[ 66° + 57° + Angle QOR = 180° \] - Therefore: \[ Angle QOR = 180° - 123° = 57° \] ### Final Answer: The value of angle QOR is **57°**. ---
