Answer:

x = 58°

Explanation:

Length of tangents drawn to a circle from a point outside the circle, are equal in measure.

By using this property,

Two tangents PQ and PR will be equal.

And angles opposite to these sides will be equal.

Therefore, ∠PQR ≅ ∠PRQ

By triangle sum theorem,

m∠PQR + m∠PRQ + m∠QPR = 180°

x° + x° + 64° = 180°

2x = 180 - 64

2x = 116

x = 58°
