In the diagram, QR∥TU, ∠PQR=80∘ and ∠PSU=95∘. Calculate ∠SUT.
Worked solution (try it first)
Draw a line through
S parallel to
QR and
TU.
By corresponding angles,
SP makes
80∘ with it, the same as
∠PQR.
∠PSU=95∘, so
SU lies
95∘−80∘=15∘ beyond the parallel line.
By alternate angles with
TU,
∠SUT=15∘, option A.
