ECZ 2016 · GCE Paper 1 — Trigonometry
In the diagram, MP = 13 km, QR = 6 km and MR = 24 km. MR is parallel and equal to TQ, PM̂R = QR̂M = 90° and TP̂Q = 75°. T lies on MP with TQMR forming a rectangle. Find PQ̂T.
- A. 25°
- B. 75°
- C. 15°
- D. 105°

TQ is parallel to MR, and PM̂R = 90°, so PT̂Q = 90° too. In triangle PTQ: PQ̂T = 180° − 90° − 75° = …The full step-by-step working and final answer are included with Premium — checked against ECZ marking standards.
