Solution

The correct option is B False
Given in PQRS,P:Q:R:S=3:4:6:7
Let P=3x,Q=4x,R=6x,S=7x
Sum of interior angles of a quadrilateral=360o
So P+Q+R+S=360o
3x+4x+6x+7x=360o
20x=360o
x=360o20
x=18o
So P=3x=3×18o=54o
Q=4×18o=72o
R=6×18o=108o
S=7×18o=126o
In quadrilateral PQRS, P&Q are not supplementary
as well as S&R are not supplementary.
So QR is not parallel to SP.
