I Really Need Help On This Math Problem!!!?

Write reasons for the statements of the proof.

Given: Segment PS and Segment QT are chords intersecting at R

Prove: Triangle QRP is similar to triangle SRT

Statements:

1. Segment PS and Segment QT are chords intersecting at R

2. Angle QPS is congruent to angle STQ and angle PQT is congruent to angle TSP

3. Triangle QRP is similar to triangle SRT

PLEASE HELP ME FIND THE REASONS FOR EACH OF THE STATEMENTS!!! I HAVE TRIED AND TRIED! THANK YOU

1. This is given.

As you are proving similarity of triangles QRP and SRT, you should specify angles in terms of the sides of these triangles.

2. Angle QPR = angle RTS (angles in same segment).

3. Angle PQR = angle TRS (angles in same segment).

4. Triangel QRP is similar to triangle SRT (equiangular).
