Question 4 Test 1, First QR Section
Triangle PQR in which PS = SR
QA: x
QB: y
Geometry: Triangles
Answer: The relationship cannot be determined
1. According to the current diagram, y° is larger than x°. But remember, the figures are not always
drawn to scale and you are free to make changes provided you keep the information given as a
constant. In this case, the constant is that PS = SR.
2. So keeping line PR the same, where PS = SR, move Q around to see what happens to x and y:

3. As you can see, it’s impossible to determine which angle is greater without having more
information about point Q.
