< PSQ = 35o, < SPR = 30o O is the centre of the circle, PRQ = 65o < OQP = 90 - 65 = 25o

From the diagram, o, o o - (70 + 44o) = 66o

If y = 2x + 1 and y = x2 - 2x + 1 then x2 - 2x + 1 = 2x + 1 x2 - 4x = 0 x(x - 4) = 0 x = 0 or 4

\(\frac{PQ}{6 + RT} = \frac{6}{12} = \frac{6}{PS}\)(Similar triangles) \(\frac{6}{12} = \frac{8}{PS}\) PS = \(\frac{12 \times 8}{6}\) = 16cm

< R = 180o - 45o (sum of angles on a straight line) < R = < P = 45o (corresponding angles) < PSO = < P = 45o (\(\bigtriangleup\)PSO is a right angle)

by Pythagoras's theorem, XW = 3cm Also by Pythagoras theorem, XY2 = 62 + 32 XY2 = 36 + 9 = 45 XY = \(\sqrt{45} = 3 \sqrt{5}\)
