Angle Ratio Ascertainment 4 (Posted on 2016-06-26)

Each of the points S and T lie on side PQ of the triangle PQR, and

(PS /SQ )*(PT/TQ) = (PR/RQ)²

Find: ∠ PRS/∠ QRT.

If PQR is isosceles then PR/RQ = 1 and angle(PRS)/angle(QRT) = 1. S and T will satisfy the inequality as long as PS=TQ.

If I start with any triangle PQR and point S, then the position of T can be calculated to satisfy the given equality.
