Answer -
Lines PQ and PR, intersect each other at O
∵ Vertically opposite angles are equal
∴ ∠POR = ∠QOS and ∠ROQ = ∠POS
∠POR : ∠ROQ = 5:7
Let ∠POR = 5x and ∠ROQ = 7x
But ∠POR + ∠ROQ = 180° (Linear pair)
∴ 5x + 7x = 180° ⇒ 12x = 180°
⇒ x =
= 15° ∴ ∠POR = 5x = 5 x 15° = 75°
and ∠ROQ = 7x = 7 x 15° = 105°
But ∠QOS = POR = 75° (Vertically opposite angles)
and ∠POS = ∠ROQ = 105°
