Answer:
Given That:
PQ=PR and ∠Q=2∠P
Since, PQ=PR⇒∠Q=∠R
Now, In △PQR
∠P+∠Q+∠R=180 degree
(Sum of angles of a triangle is 180 degree )
⇒∠P+2∠P+2∠P=180 degree
⇒5∠P=180 degree
⇒P=36 degree
∴∠Q=2∠P=2×36 =72 degree

PQ=PR
∠Q=2∠P

∠Q=?

PQ=PR⇒∠Q=∠R
Now, In △PQR
∠P+∠Q+∠R=180 ∘
(Sum of angles of a triangle is 180 ∘.)
⇒∠P+2∠P+2∠P=180 ∘
⇒5∠P=180 ∘
⇒P=36 ∘
∴∠Q=2∠P=2×36 ∘
=72 ∘
