    Question

    In △PQR,∠PQR = 9090^∘,PQ =3 cm and PR = 6 cm. What is the measure of ∠PRQ ?

    A.

    60°

    B.

    45°

    C.

    70°

    D.

    30°

    Correct option is D

    Given:

    PQ = 3cm

    PR = 6cm 

    Formula Used: 

    sinθ=PerpendicularBase\sin \theta = \frac{\text{Perpendicular}}{\text{Base}} 

    sin30°=12\sin 30\degree = \frac{1}{2}​​

    Solution:

    We use the trigonometric ratio Sin for the angle ∠ PRQ:

    sin(∠PRQ) = PQPR\frac{PQ}{PR} = 36\frac{3}{6} = 12\frac{1}{2}​​

    ∠PQR = 30°30\degree​​

    The angle whose sin value 12\frac{1}{2}​  is 3030^∘

    Thus the correct answer is (D)
