Given,

The diagram of the circle and arc is shown in question.

The measure of arc PQ is,


\begin{gathered} \text{arc PQ=measure of }\angle POQ \\ =110^(\circ) \end{gathered}

The measure of arc PRQ is,


\begin{gathered} arcPRQ=360^(\circ)-\text{measure of }\angle POQ \\ =360^(\circ)-110^(\circ) \\ =250^(\circ) \end{gathered}

Hence, the measure of arc PQ is 110 degree and measure of arc PRQ is 250 degree.
