SSC CGL 2018 PYQ — Question 31

SSC CGL Tier II Quant - 20/02/2018 • Quantitative Aptitude • Q31

In the given figure, P is the centre of the circle. If QS = PR, then what is the ratio of ∠RSP to the ∠TPR?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. 1 : 3

Let ∠PQR = ∠PRQ = θ

So, ∠QPR = (π – 2θ)

And, SQ = QP = PR

∴ ∠SPQ = ∠PSQ = θ/2

So, ∠TPR = π – (π – 2θ) – θ/2

= 3θ/2
