Okay. Let's work this through step by step. If m∠BAC=70∘, and △ABC∼△PAQ, then ∠APQ should also be 70∘.
If ∠APQ=70∘,∠CPQ=110∘.
And since △QPC∼△ABQ,∠AQB=110∘.
Also, since ∠AQB=110∘,∠AQC=70∘.
Okay, now for the second part.
Since △ABQ∼△QPC,∠PQC=∠BAQ.
Let both these angles be x.
This means that ∠QAP=∠AQP, since ∠BAC=70∘ and ∠AQC=70∘, and both ∠QAP and ∠AQP equal (70−x)∘.
Since ∠APQ=70∘, both ∠QAP and ∠AQP are equal to 55∘.
Now the final step. Now that we have the angle measurements of ∠AQB and ∠AQP, we can solve for ∠PQC.
∠AQB+∠AQP=165∘.
∠PQC=180∘−165∘=15∘
m∠PQC=15∘
Since triangle ABC is similar to triangle PAQ
Then angle BAC = angle APQ
But angle BAC = 70
So angle APQ = 70
And angle QPC is supplemental to angle APQ
So angle QPC = 110
And triangle ABQ is simialr to triangle QCP
So angle ABQ = angle QCP
But angle ABQ = angle ABC = angle QCP = angle ACB
So...triangle ABC isosceles with angles ABC, ACB being equal
So...their measures = [ 180 - m angle BAC ] / 2 = [180 - 70] / 2 = 110 / 2 = 55
And since m angle ACB = m angle QCP...then m angle QCP = 55
So...in triangle QPC......m angle PQC = [ 180 - m angle QPC - m angle QCP ] =
180 - 110 - 55 = 180 - 165 = 15° = m angle PQC
