If we use trig to find ShatQRSˆQR first

cos theta= sqrt2/2cosθ=22

theta = cos^-1(sqrt2/2)θ=cos1(22)

ShatQR=45SˆQR=45

PQR is a straight line so subtract ShatQRSˆQR from 180

PhatQS= 135PˆQS=135

/_PQSPQS = 135^01350

Explanation:

Angle /_PQSPQS = 180 - Angle /_SQRSQR

To find /_SQRSQR we use SOHCAHTOA.

In a given triangle SQR, Hypotenuse is 2cm2cm (QS) and Adjacent is sqrt(2) cm2cm

So angle /_SQRSQR, thetaθ = costhetacosθ = Adjecent/Hypotenuse

costhetacosθ = sqrt(2)/222 = 0.7010.701

thetaθ = cos^(-1) 0.701cos10.701 = 45^0450

Hence, /_PQSPQS = 180 - 4518045 = 135^01350
