XYZ In triangle, angle Y is a right angle, point P lies XZ YZ PQ on, and point Q lies on such that is XY XZY 63° parallel to. If the measure of angle is, XPQ what is the measure, in degrees, of angle?
Correct answer: 153 (parsed from the explanation — this source omits an answer key for this item)
Explanation
153 The correct answer is . Since it’s given that PQ is parallel to XY and angle Y is a right angle, angle ZQP is also a right angle. Angle ZPQ is complementary to 90-63 27 angle XZY, which means its measure, in degrees, is , or . Since 180-27 angle XPQ is supplementary to angle ZPQ, its measure, in degrees, is , 153 or .
