Answer:

x = 80

Explanation:

if ray RU bisects <QRS that means it divided the angle into two equal parts

then we can write the following equation to find the value of x:

<SRU = <QRU

50 = (x/2 + 10) subtract 10 from both sides

40 = x/2 multiply both sides with 2

80 = x

<QRS = 100 because it's the sum of <SRU and <QRU
