Answer:

see explanation

Explanation:

PQRS is a cyclic quadrilateral.

the opposite angles in a cyclic quadrilateral sum to 180° then

∠ Q + ∠ S = 180 ( substitute values )

3x - 8 + 3x + 8 = 180

6x = 180 ( divide both sides by 6 )

x = 30

Then

∠ Q = 3x - 8 = 3(30) - 8 = 90 - 8 = 82°

∠ S = 3x + 8 = 3(30) + 8 = 90 + 8 = 98°

∠ P = x + 15 = 30 + 15 = 45°

∠ R = 180° - ∠ P = 180° - 45° = 135°
