Answer to Problem 24RP

  RS>RQ .

Explanation of Solution

Given:

A quadrilateral PQRS in which PQ>RS,QS .

  Geometry For Enjoyment And Challenge, Chapter 15, Problem 24RP

Calculation:

According to the question, PQRS is a quadrilateral. Now, joining the one diagonal so that a line is formed. So, a line QS¯ is drawn.

  PQ>RS,QSPSQ>PQSSQR>QSRRS>RQ

Thus, RS>RQ

Hence, it is proved that one of the horizontal sides RS is greater than vertical sides RQ .
