Hi Andre!
IMO [spoiler]D
[/spoiler]
angle(PRS) - angle(PQR) = ?
angle(QPR) + angle(PRQ) + angle(PQR)= 180
angle(PRS) = 180 - angle(PRQ)
angle(PRQ) = 180 - angle(PRS)
angle(QPR) + 180 - angle(PRS) + angle(RQP) = 180
angle(QPR) + angle(PQR) = angle(PRS)
angle(PRS) - angle(PQR) = angle(QPR)
(1) angle(QPR) = 30
it is SUFFICIENT
(2) angle(PRQ) + angle(PQR) = 150
angle(QPR) + angle(PRQ) + angle(PQR)= 180
angle(QPR) + 150= 180
angle(QPR) = 30
it is SUFFICIENT
so answer is D
hope it helps!
Best,
Maciek

I want to note that when seeing a question like this one where 1) and 2) are telling the exact same thing, the only possible answer is either D or E. On test day, it will be helpful to know this even when you have to guess.
Yep.
