Answer:

x = 34 degrees

Explanation:

angles TWU and PSR are vertical and equal

if TSU = 4x and QSR = x then PSQ = 3x

triangle PSQ has 180 degrees

we know the three interior angles of the triangle are:

x, x, 112

we found the 112 by subtracting 68 from 180 since PQR is a straight line which has 180 degrees

to find 'x' we do the following:

x + x + 112 = 180

2x + 112 = 180

2x = 68

x = 34
