Answer:

[tex]\angle RST =110[/tex]

Explanation:

Given

[tex]\angle RPT = 70[/tex]

See attachment

Required

Find [tex]\angle RST[/tex]

To do this, we make use of the following theorem

[tex]\angle RST + \angle RPT = 180[/tex] --- angle at the center and angle between two tangents add up to 180 (i.e. they are supplementary angles)

So, we have:

[tex]\angle RST + 70 = 180[/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex]\angle RST =- 70 + 180[/tex]

[tex]\angle RST =110[/tex]
