In the given figure, AP is perpendicular to BC, and AQ is the bisector of angle PAC. What will be the measure of angle PAQ?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is option 1 i.e 30o

Application In ΔAPC ⇒ ∠APC + ∠PCA + ∠PAC = 180 ⇒ 90 + 30 + ∠PAC = 180 ⇒ ∠PAC = 180 - 120 ⇒ ∠PAC = 60 |
|
Now Since, AQ is the bisector of angle PAC So ∠PAQ = 60/2 ∠PAQ = 30 |
