Question

In quadrilateral PQRS, the bisectors of ∠R and ∠S meet at the point T (inside the quadrilateral) and ∠STR = 22.5°. If the ratio of ∠P to ∠Q is 4 : 5, then what is the difference between the measures of ∠Q and ∠P?

A.


B.


C.


D.


Correct option is D

Given:
Angle STR =  22.522.5^\circ​​
Ratio of Angle P to Angle Q = 4 : 5
Formula Used:
In a quadrilateral, the angle formed by the intersection of bisectors of two adjacent angles is half the sum of the other two angles.
STR=12(P+Q)\angle STR = \frac{1}{2}(\angle P + \angle Q)​​
Solution: 

Substitute the given value into the formula.
22.5=12(P+Q)22.5^\circ = \frac{1}{2}(\angle P + \angle Q)​​
P+Q=45\angle P + \angle Q = 45^\circ​​
Let \angle P = 4x and \angle Q = 5x.
4x+5x=454x + 5x = 45^\circ​​
9x=459x = 45^\circ​​
x=5x = 5^\circ​​
Difference between Q\angle Q and  P\angle P​ = 5x - 4x = x = 5 5^\circ​​
Final Answer
So the correct answer is (d)
