Re: For the cube shown in the figure above, what is the degree measure of [#permalink]
But PRQ will be an equilateral triangle

And the other two angles which are 45 degrees are not in the same plane

The explanatiion on GC is wrong

Quote:
Note that triangle PQR is equilateral: it's made by the diagonals of the adjacent faces of the given cube (and as faces of a cube are squares its diagonals are equal). Thus angle BEG=60 degrees.


Where is BEG ?

also another user pointed out that the two angles are 45° each

The question and the OA and the explanation provided are correct

Thanks you
