Answer:

x = 13

Arc RQ = 180°

Explanation:

PEQ is an inscribed angle and the measure of an inscribed angle in a circle is equal to half of the arc it sees.

The perimeter of a circle is always 360° therefore

2 × (5x + 15) + 9x + 17 + 6x - 12 = 25x + 35 = 360°

25x = 360 - 35

25x = 325

x = 13

Since arc RQ is equal to 10x + 30 we replace x with the value we just got

10×13 + 30 = 160°
