Answer:

Angle STR = 78°

Explanation:

So, since line QS is a straight line, we know that it's 180°. We also know that angles QTR and STR both add up to 180°. That gives us an equation:

20x + 12 + 10x + 33 = 180

Combine like terms

30x + 45 = 180

Subtract 45 from both sides

30x = 135

Divide both sides by 30

x = 4.5

Now we know the value of x. We just need to plug it into angle STR's given value:

10(4.5) + 33 = angle STR

45 + 33 = angle STR

78° = angle STR
