The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the measure of angle \( \angle RSQ \) in the rhombus \( PQRS \) given that \( \angle SPQ = 50^\circ \). ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Properties of a Rhombus**: - A rhombus has all four sides equal. - The opposite angles of a rhombus are equal. - The diagonals of a rhombus bisect each other at right angles. 2. **Identify Given Information**: - We are given that \( \angle SPQ = 50^\circ \). 3. **Using the Diagonal Property**: - In a rhombus, the diagonal \( PQ \) bisects the angles at vertices \( P \) and \( S \). - Therefore, \( \angle SPQ \) is half of \( \angle RPQ \). - This means: \[ \angle RPQ = 2 \times \angle SPQ = 2 \times 50^\circ = 100^\circ \] 4. **Finding \( \angle RSQ \)**: - Since the opposite angles in a rhombus are equal, we have: \[ \angle RPQ = \angle RSQ \] - Therefore: \[ \angle RSQ = 100^\circ \] 5. **Conclusion**: - The measure of angle \( \angle RSQ \) is \( 100^\circ \). ### Final Answer: \[ \angle RSQ = 100^\circ \]
