Here's the solution to question 3:

a) Prove that PT∥QSPT \parallel QS

Step 1: Identify given parallel lines and angles.
We are given that PU∥QTPU \parallel QT.
We are given the following angles:
∠UPT=x\angle UPT = x
∠QPT=x+40∘\angle QPT = x+40^\circ
∠PQT=y\angle PQT = y
∠QTS=42∘\angle QTS = 42^\circ
∠RQS=82∘\angle RQS = 82^\circ

Step 2: Use properties of parallel lines PU∥QTPU \parallel QT.
Since PU∥QTPU \parallel QT and PTPT is a transversal, the alternate interior angles are equal:

∠UPT=∠PTQ\angle UPT = \angle PTQ
