Since angle P is equal to the central angle of arc PR, and angle P is 28 degrees, then the measure of arc PR is also 28 degrees.
Since angle Q and angle R are angles formed by a tangent and a chord, they are supplementary. Therefore, angle Q = 180 - angle R.
The measure of arc PR is equal to the measure of angle QR (angle formed by a chord and an inscribed angle). Therefore, angle QR = 28 degrees.
Since angle Q and angle R are supplementary, we have:
180 - angle R = 28
angle R = 180 - 28
angle R = 152
Since angle R and angle S are angles formed by a tangent and a chord, they are supplementary. Therefore, angle R + angle S = 180.
152 + angle S = 180
angle S = 180 - 152
angle S = 28
Since angle S and angle O are angles formed by a tangent and a chord, they are equal in measure:
angle S = angle O
28 = x
Therefore, x = 28.
So, the value of x is 28.
