The correct answer is: Not defined

Solving x+2y-3=0 and 5x+2y+12=0, we get,

 P=-3,3

Solving x+2y-3=0 and x-1=0, we get,

 Q=1,1

Solving x-1=0 and x-3y-4=0, we get,

 R=1,-1

Solving x-3y-4=0 and 5x+y+12=0, we get,

 S=-2,-2

m1=slope of  PR=-1, m2=slope  of  QS=1

m1m2=-1

 the angle between diagonals PR & QS is 90o

Hence, tan90° is not defined
