Solution
`square`PQRS is a parallelogram. ...[Given]
∴ ∠R = ∠P ...[Opposite angles of a parallelogram]
∴ ∠R = 110° ...(i)
`square`ABCR is a parallelogram. ...[Given]
∴ ∠A + ∠R = 180° ...[Adjacent angles of a parallelogram are supplementary]
∴ ∠A + 110° = 180° ...[From (i)]
∴ ∠A = 180° - 110°
∴ ∠A = 70°
∴ ∠C = ∠A = 70°
∴ ∠B = ∠R = 110° ...[Opposite angles of a parallelogram]
∴ ∠A = 70°, ∠B = 110°,
∴ ∠C = 70°, ∠R = 110°
