Question
in the figure below, △nop is drawn. the line qr is drawn such that qr||op. m∠nop =
<
because they are
Step1: Use property of parallel lines
When $QR\parallel OP$, corresponding - angles are equal. So, the angle corresponding to the $45^{\circ}$ angle formed by $QR$ and $NO$ is also $45^{\circ}$.
Step2: Apply angle - sum property of a triangle
In $\triangle NOP$, we know that the sum of interior angles of a triangle is $180^{\circ}$. Let $\angle NOP = x$. Given one angle is $45^{\circ}$ and another is $50^{\circ}$. Then $x+45^{\circ}+50^{\circ}=180^{\circ}$.
We can solve for $x$ as follows:
\[
$$\begin{align*}
x&=180^{\circ}-(45^{\circ} + 50^{\circ})\\
x&=180^{\circ}-95^{\circ}\\
x& = 85^{\circ}
\end{align*}$$
