Answer:

S = 151°

Explanation:

Recall that the sum of the measures of the interior angles of a polygon with n sides is (n – 2)180.

Here we have a polygon with 5 sides (n=5), so the sum of its interior angles must be

(5-2)*180 = 540°

So

P+Q+R+S+T = 540°

(10x-3)+(5x+2)+(7x-11)+(13x-31)+(8x-19) = 540°

43x - 62 = 540

43x = 540 + 62

43x = 602

x = 602/43

x = 14°

The angle S equals 13x - 31 = 13*14 - 31 = 151°

S = 151°

You can compute all the other angles as well.
