We are given that $\angle ROS = 66^\circ$ and $\angle POQ = 3x$. We are also told that some construction lines are shown. We are asked to calculate the value of $x$. Since OP bisects $\angle ROS$, $\angle POS = \angle POR = \frac{1}{2} \angle ROS$.

1. Problem Description

We are given that ROS=66\angle ROS = 66^\circ and POQ=3x\angle POQ = 3x. We are also told that some construction lines are shown. We are asked to calculate the value of xx. Since OP bisects ROS\angle ROS, POS=POR=12ROS\angle POS = \angle POR = \frac{1}{2} \angle ROS.

2. Solution Steps

Since OPOP bisects ROS\angle ROS, we have
POS=POR=12ROS\angle POS = \angle POR = \frac{1}{2} \angle ROS
We are given that ROS=66\angle ROS = 66^\circ, so
POS=12(66)=33\angle POS = \frac{1}{2}(66^\circ) = 33^\circ.
We are given that POQ=3x\angle POQ = 3x. Since OQOQ bisects POS\angle POS, POQ=QOS=12POS\angle POQ = \angle QOS = \frac{1}{2} \angle POS. Therefore,
POQ=12POS=12(33)=33\angle POQ = \frac{1}{2} \angle POS = \frac{1}{2} (33^\circ) = 33^\circ
QOS=12POS=12(33)=33\angle QOS = \frac{1}{2} \angle POS = \frac{1}{2} (33^\circ) = 33^\circ
However, POQ=3x\angle POQ = 3x. Therefore,
3x=333x = 33^{\circ}.
Dividing both sides by 33, we have
x=11x = 11^{\circ}.

3. Final Answer

x=11x = 11^{\circ}
The answer is B.
