Since ∠RQT is a straight angle, it measures 180 degrees.

Since ∠RQS and ∠TQS share the same ray, we can conclude that ∠RQS + ∠TQS = 180 degrees.

Therefore, m∠RQS + m∠TQS = 180.

However, without knowing any specific measurements or relationships between the angles, we cannot determine the exact measures of ∠RQS and ∠TQS.
