As the figure is not given, but I have tried my best to solve this question.
Solution:
Angle XSQ = 90°
Angle XTQ = 90°
QX = QX (This is the common side)
Since QX bisects Q the angle is equally split between the triangles)
So, XQS = TQX
So, Δ XTQ is congruent to Δ XSQ
XS = XT (According to CPCT) ...(1)
Draw XW perpendicular to PR
Similarly, we can prove that Δ XSR is congruent to Δ XWR.
So, XS = XW ... (2)
So, from (1) and (2)
now in PXT and PXW, PTX = PWX, PX is common and XT = XW.
BY R.H.S. both triangles are congruent, XPT = XPW and PX bisects the angle P. Hence proved.

i] in Δ's XTQ and XSQ
∠ XSQ = 90°
∠ XTQ = 90°
QX = QX (This is the common side)
Since QX bisects Q the angle is equally split between the triangles)
So, XQS = TQX
So, Δ XTQ ≅ Δ XSQ
XS = XT ( CPCT) ____________(1]
Similarly, we can prove that Δ XSR ≅ Δ XWR.
So, XS = XW _______________(2)
So, from (1) and (2)
PXT and PXW, PTX = PWX, PX is common and XT = XW.
BY RHS both triangles are congruent, XPT = XPW
PX bisects the angle P.
Hence proved.
