    In the given figure, PQRS is a cyclic quadrilateral in which\[PS=RS,\angle SQR=x\]and\[\angle PQS={{60}^{o}}.\]The value of \[x\]is ____.

    A) \[{{30}^{o}}\]

    B)        \[{{60}^{o}}\]

    C)        \[{{75}^{o}}\]

    D)        \[{{80}^{o}}\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Given, PS = RS, \[\angle PQS={{60}^{o}}\]and \[\angle SQR=x\]Since, angles in the same segment are equal. \[\therefore \]\[\angle SPR=\angle SQR=x\] Also, \[\angle SPR=\angle SRP\]               (\[\because \] PS = RS) \[\therefore \]\[\angle SRP=x\] \[\angle SRP=\angle PQS\] (Angles in the same segment are equal) \[\Rightarrow \]\[x={{60}^{o}}\]
