Answer:

The answer is 72°

Explanation:

Since < RQS = < QLK and < RQS = x

< QLK is also x

< QLK and < KLM lie on a straight line

Angles on a straight line add up to 180°

To find x add < QLK and < KLM and equate them to 180°

That's

< QLK + < KLM = 180°

x + x - 36 = 180

2x = 180 - 36

2x = 144

Divide both sides by 2

We have the final answer as

x = 72°

Hope this helps you
