Problem

In a circle with centre PP, the arc QRQR subtends an angle of (5y−10)∘(5y - 10)^{\circ} at the centre and an angle of (2y+5)∘(2y + 5)^{\circ} at a point SS on the circumference. (i) Find the value of yy. (ii) Hence determine the measures of ∠QPR\angle QPR and ∠QSR\angle QSR. (iii) If TT is any other point on the circle in the same segment as SS, find the measure of ∠QTR\angle QTR and justify your answer.
