The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the value of angle \( \angle QPR \) in triangle \( PQR \) given that the angle \( \angle QOR = 50^\circ \). We know that \( O \) is the intersection of the angle bisectors of \( \angle AQR \) and \( \angle BRQ \). ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Geometry**: - We have triangle \( PQR \). - The sides \( PQ \) and \( PR \) are extended to points \( A \) and \( B \) respectively. - The angle bisectors of \( \angle AQR \) and \( \angle BRQ \) intersect at point \( O \). - We are given that \( \angle QOR = 50^\circ \). 2. **Use the Property of the Excenter**: - The point \( O \) is the excenter of triangle \( PQR \) opposite to vertex \( P \). - The property of the excenter states that: \[ \angle QOR = 90^\circ - \frac{1}{2} \angle QPR \] 3. **Set Up the Equation**: - From the property mentioned, we can set up the equation: \[ 50^\circ = 90^\circ - \frac{1}{2} \angle QPR \] 4. **Rearrange the Equation**: - Rearranging the equation gives: \[ \frac{1}{2} \angle QPR = 90^\circ - 50^\circ \] \[ \frac{1}{2} \angle QPR = 40^\circ \] 5. **Solve for \( \angle QPR \)**: - Multiplying both sides by 2: \[ \angle QPR = 2 \times 40^\circ = 80^\circ \] ### Final Answer: Thus, the value of \( \angle QPR \) is \( 80^\circ \). ---
