+128 In the diagram below, PQ and TU are parallel, and Q, R, and S are collinear. If PQR=120 degress and TRS=55 degrees, then what is the degree measure of RTU?

+129849 Draw PV perpendicular to TU such that PV intersects TU at W
Then....since PQ is parallel to TU.....then angles QPW and TWP = 90°
So...we have the irregular pentagon QPWTR
And angle TRQ is supplemental to angle TRS....so its measure = 180 - 55 = 125°
And the sum ot the interior angles of a pentagon = 540....so
So
RQP + QPW + PWT + WTR +TRQ = 540
120 + 90 + 90 + WTR + 125 = 540
425 + WTR = 540
WTR = 540 - 425
WTR = 115° = UTR
