how much is prs - pqr
(1) 180-prs + pqr + qpr(30) = 180. Sufficient.
(2) just symmetric info as above. Sufficient.
We dont need to know prs and pqr in order to know their difference.

Fantastic, thanks! Good to remember if you're asked for a difference, addition, multiplication, etc...you just have to get the combination to equal something definite.
