Answer:

Explanation:

Since PQR is a triangle with QR = PQ, we have:

∠PQR = ∠QPR (since the angles opposite to equal sides are equal)

Let x be the measure of ∠QPR. Then:

∠PQR + ∠QPR + ∠R = 180° (sum of angles in a triangle)

x + x + 50° = 180°

2x = 130°

x = 65°

Therefore, the measure of ∠QPR is 65°.
