Answer:

The measure of ∠QRS is 58° .

Explanation:

Definition of the bisect

Bisect means divided anything in two equal parts .

As given

RS bisects ∠QRT.

This RS divided the ∠QRT into two equal parts .

If m∠QRT = 116 .

Thus


\angle QRS = (\angle QRT)/(2)


\angle QRS = (116)/(2)

∠QRS = 58°

Therefore the measure of ∠QRS is 58° .

RS bisects ∠QRT. If m∠QRT = 116, what is m∠QRS?-example-1

Bisecting an angle means it divides the angle into two equal parts. If line rs bisects angle qrt which has a measure of 116 degrees, then angle qrs should have an angle of 58 degrees. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.
