Solution

∠2 + ∠3 = 180°

Explanation:

Since, PQ || RS, line l is a transversal.

∴ ∠2 + ∠5 = 180° ...(i) [Co-interior angles]

∠3 + ∠8 = 180°  ...(ii) [Co-interior angles]

∠1 = ∠2  ...(iii) [Vertically opposite angles]

∴ ∠1 + ∠5 = 180°  ...[By (i) and (iii)]

∠2 = ∠3  ...[Alternate interior angles]

But ∠2 + ∠3 ≠ 180°
