Answer:

61°

Explanation:

In order for triangle LMN and PQR to be congruent, angle M and angle Q must equal. thus, we can set 2x-26=x+16

with basic algebraic manipulation, x=42. we then plug it back into the angle M or Q, getting angle M/Q= 58°

since this is a isoceles, the 2 base angle are identical, so 180= 58+2(angle P)

thus, angle P= 61
