2. What is the value of PRQ? (click for answer)

   Answer: 80°
   180° – (40° + 60°) = 80°

3. What is the length of PQ? (click for answer)

   Answer: 4 cms
   LM / QR = KL / PQ
   6/3 = 8/PQ
   6PQ = 24 (By Cross – Multiplying)
   PQ = 24/6
   PQ = 4

4. Can we say KLM PQR? (click for answer)

   Answer: Yes, KLM PQR

   As,
   KLM = PQR, KML = QRP and LKM = QPR

   KL = KM = LM
   PQ PR QR
