Answer:

140 degrees.

Explanation:

All circles are made up of
360^\circ. Each of the angles provided are called central angles, which means when we add them all together, we will get a total of
360^\circ

Notice the little red box, which indicates a
90^\circ angle. From the circle, we know the following angles:


\angle{RQS}=130^\circ


\angle{TQS}=90^\circ

We can write and solve an equation to solve for the missing angle,
\angle{RQT}:


\angle{RQS}+\angle{TQS}+\angle{RQT}=360^\circ\\130^\circ + 90^\circ+\angle{RQT}=360^\circ

Combine like terms:


230^\circ+\angle{RQT}=360

Subtract
230^\circ from both sides:


\angle{RQT}=140^\circ.
