Answer:

C. 38°

D. 30°

Explanation:

The relevant relation in both cases is the inscribed angle measures half the measure of the arc it intercepts.

__

C. Angle TSQ intercepts arc TQ, so the measure of arc TQ is 2(86.5°) = 173°. The measure of arc TR is the difference between the measures of arcs TQ and RQ, so is ...

arc TR = 173° -135° = 38°

__

D. Inscribed angle PQR intercepts arc PR, so is half its measure.

angle PQR = 60°/2 = 30°
