Circle T has diameters RP and QS. The measure of ∠RTQ is 12° less than the measure of ∠RTS.
Circle T is shown. Line segments T S, T R, T Q, and T P are radii. Lines are drawn to connect points S and R and points P and Q to form secants. Angles R T S and Q T P are congruent.
What is the measure of Arc Q P?

If we consider QS to be the diameter,
If we consider QS to be the diameter,then ∠QTS = 180°
If we consider QS to be the diameter,then ∠QTS = 180°Now, let ∠RTQ = x
If we consider QS to be the diameter,then ∠QTS = 180°Now, let ∠RTQ = xAccording to the question,
If we consider QS to be the diameter,then ∠QTS = 180°Now, let ∠RTQ = xAccording to the question,∠RTQ = ∠RTS - 12°
If we consider QS to be the diameter,then ∠QTS = 180°Now, let ∠RTQ = xAccording to the question,∠RTQ = ∠RTS - 12°⇒ ∠RTS = x + 12°
If we consider QS to be the diameter,then ∠QTS = 180°Now, let ∠RTQ = xAccording to the question,∠RTQ = ∠RTS - 12°⇒ ∠RTS = x + 12°∴ ∠QTS = ∠RTQ + ∠RTS
If we consider QS to be the diameter,then ∠QTS = 180°Now, let ∠RTQ = xAccording to the question,∠RTQ = ∠RTS - 12°⇒ ∠RTS = x + 12°∴ ∠QTS = ∠RTQ + ∠RTS= x + x + 12° = 2x + 12° = 180°
If we consider QS to be the diameter,then ∠QTS = 180°Now, let ∠RTQ = xAccording to the question,∠RTQ = ∠RTS - 12°⇒ ∠RTS = x + 12°∴ ∠QTS = ∠RTQ + ∠RTS= x + x + 12° = 2x + 12° = 180°⇒ 2x = 168°
If we consider QS to be the diameter,then ∠QTS = 180°Now, let ∠RTQ = xAccording to the question,∠RTQ = ∠RTS - 12°⇒ ∠RTS = x + 12°∴ ∠QTS = ∠RTQ + ∠RTS= x + x + 12° = 2x + 12° = 180°⇒ 2x = 168°⇒ x = 84°
If we consider QS to be the diameter,then ∠QTS = 180°Now, let ∠RTQ = xAccording to the question,∠RTQ = ∠RTS - 12°⇒ ∠RTS = x + 12°∴ ∠QTS = ∠RTQ + ∠RTS= x + x + 12° = 2x + 12° = 180°⇒ 2x = 168°⇒ x = 84°⇒ ∠RTQ = 84°
