Answer:

∠ RQS = 58°, ∠ SRT = 44°

Explanation:

The angle at the centre of a circle is equal to the measure of the arc that subtends it, then

angle at centre = arc QR = 76°

∠ RQS = 180° - (76 + 46)° ← sum of angles in a triangle

∠ RQS = 180° - 122° = 58°

-------------------------------------------------

∠ SRQ = 90° ( angle in a semicircle )

∠ SRT = 90° - ∠ QRT = 90° - 46° = 44°
