Answer:

  (a) ∠SPR = 70°

  (b) ∠SRP = 30°

Step-by-step explanation:

The applicable relationships are ...

  • the measure of an arc is twice the measure of the inscribed angle it subtends
  • the sum of measures of the arcs of a circle is 360°
  • the sum of measures of the angles of a triangle is 180°

__

QR is subtended by 35° inscribed angle QPR, so is 2×35° = 70°.

PQ is subtended by 45° inscribed angle PSQ, so is 2×45° = 90°.

RS is 2×QR, so is 2×70° = 140°.

(a) Inscribed angle SPR is half the measure of arc RS, so is 140°/2 = 70°.

__

(b) Arc SP is the remaining arc in the circle, so is ...

  arc SP = 360° -arc PQ -arc QR -arc RS = 360° -90° -70° -140° = 60°.

Inscribed angle SRP is half the measure of arc SP, so is 60°/2 = 30°
