1. Problem Description

The problem asks us to find the size of angle qq and angle rr in the given triangle. We are given the angles 5656^{\circ} and 4848^{\circ} inside the triangle. Angle qq is an interior angle of the triangle, and angle rr is an exterior angle.

2. Solution Steps

a) To find the size of angle qq, we use the fact that the sum of the interior angles in a triangle is 180180^{\circ}.
Therefore,
56+48+q=18056^{\circ} + 48^{\circ} + q = 180^{\circ}
104+q=180104^{\circ} + q = 180^{\circ}
q=180104q = 180^{\circ} - 104^{\circ}
q=76q = 76^{\circ}
b) To find the size of angle rr, we can use the fact that the angles qq and rr form a straight line, so their sum is 180180^{\circ}.
q+r=180q + r = 180^{\circ}
Since we found q=76q = 76^{\circ},
76+r=18076^{\circ} + r = 180^{\circ}
r=18076r = 180^{\circ} - 76^{\circ}
r=104r = 104^{\circ}
Alternatively, we can use the exterior angle theorem, which states that the exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the two opposite interior angles. Thus,
r=56+48=104r = 56^{\circ} + 48^{\circ} = 104^{\circ}

3. Final Answer

a) The size of angle qq is 7676^{\circ}.
b) The size of angle rr is 104104^{\circ}.
