Answer:
∠QMP = ∠QRP = ∠PSR = 90 (Angle subtended by a semi circle is 90 degrees)
In triangle PQM
∠QMP + ∠MQP + ∠QPM = 180 (Angle sum property of traingle)
90 + 50 + ∠QPM = 180
140 + ∠QPM = 180
∠QPM = 180 - 140
∠QPM = 40
In triangle PQR
∠PQR + ∠QRP + ∠QPR = 180 (Angle sum property of traingle)
65 + 90 + ∠QPR = 180
155 + ∠QPR = 180
∠QPR = 25
In triangle PRS
∠PRS + ∠PSR + ∠RPS = 180 (Angle sum propery of triangle)
∠PRS + 90 + 40 = 180
∠PRS + 130 = 180
∠PRS = 180 - 130
∠PRS = 50
Hope this helps you :)
