SOLUTION:

In ΔPQR, ∠1 = ∠2∠PQR = ∠PRQ [GIVEN]∴ PR = PQ ……………..…(1)

[Sides opposite to equal angles of a triangle are also equal]Given: QR/QS = QT/PRQR/QS = QT/PQ

QS/QR = PQ/QT…... …(ii) [Taking reciprocals]

[From eq (i)]In ΔPQS and ΔTQR,QS/QR = PQ/QT [From eq (ii)] ∠PQS = ∠TQR [ common]∴ ΔPQS ~ ΔTQR [By SAS similarity criterion]

Hence, proved
