Solution

The correct option is D

140o


We know: Sum of all the angles in a quadrilateral is 360o.
If ∠R = 140°, then

∠P + ∠Q + ∠R + ∠S = 360o

70o + 150o + 140° + ∠S = 360o

360o + ∠S = 360o

∠S = 0o

Hence, a quadrilateral cannot be constructed with the given measurements and measure of ∠R as 140o.
