Answer:

90 degrees

Explanation:

The three angles of a triangle always add up to 180 degrees, so knowing this, all three of the measures given should add up to 180.

First, you need to solve for x:

S(x+10) + R(2x+60) + T(50+x) = 180

Add up all of the like terms:

10 + 60 + 50 = 120

x + 2x + x = 4x

So now you are left with 4x + 120 = 180

And solve for x:

4x/4 + 120/4 = 180/4

x + 30 = 45

x + 30-30 = 45-30

x = 15

Now that we have the value of x, plug it into the measure given for angle R:

(2x+60)

= (2(15)+60)

= (30 + 60)

= 90

So the measure of angle R is 90 degrees.

I hope this helped! :)
