1. Problem Description

In the given diagram, we are given that PMQ=34°∠PMQ = 34° and NQM=28°∠NQM = 28°. We need to find the measure of QTN∠QTN.

2. Solution Steps

Since angles PMQ∠PMQ and PNQ∠PNQ subtend the same arc PQPQ, we have
PNQ=PMQ=34°∠PNQ = ∠PMQ = 34°.
In triangle QNQN, we have NQM=28°∠NQM = 28° and PNQ=34°∠PNQ = 34°.
Therefore, QNP=34°∠QNP = 34°.
The sum of the angles in triangle QNQN is 180°180°, so
NQN+PNQ+QNP=180°∠NQN + ∠PNQ + ∠QNP = 180°.
NQN+28°+34°=180°∠NQN + 28° + 34° = 180°.
NQN+62°=180°∠NQN + 62° = 180°.
However, we are not looking for NQN∠NQN. We are interested in PTN∠PTN.
We are given that NQM=28°∠NQM = 28° and PMQ=34°∠PMQ = 34°. In triangle QNMQNM, we have NQM=28°∠NQM = 28° and QMN=PMQ=34°∠QMN = ∠PMQ = 34°. The sum of angles in triangle QNMQNM is 180°180°. Therefore, QNM=180°28°34°=180°62°=118°∠QNM = 180° - 28° - 34° = 180° - 62° = 118°.
PTN∠PTN and PNM∠PNM are supplementary, which means they add up to 180°180°. So, PTN=180°PNM=180°34°=146°∠PTN = 180° - ∠PNM = 180° - 34° = 146°. QTM=NTM∠QTM = ∠NTM, and angles NPT∠NPT and NMT∠NMT subtend the same arc NT, so NPT=NMT∠NPT = ∠NMT.
In quadrilateral PTMNPTMN, PTN+PMN=180°∠PTN + ∠PMN = 180°. This gives us that PMN=PMQ=34°∠PMN = ∠PMQ = 34°.
The sum of the angles in quadrilateral PTMNPTMN is 360°360°.
In QTN\triangle QTN, we want to find QTN∠QTN.
We know NQM=28°∠NQM = 28°.
We also know that PTM∠PTM and MTN∠MTN are supplementary, so MTN+MTQ=180°∠MTN + ∠MTQ = 180°.
PTM=180°QTM∠PTM = 180° - ∠QTM is part of the straight line QTQT.
We know that PMT=PNT∠PMT = ∠PNT because they subtend the same arc PT.
Consider triangle QTPQTP. Q=28°∠Q = 28° and PMQ=34°∠PMQ = 34°, PTM=180PMQ∠PTM = 180 - ∠PMQ. Let QTN∠QTN be xx. Then PTN+MTN=180∠PTN + ∠MTN = 180.
However, NTM=NPM∠NTM = ∠NPM since angles subtended by same arc. We know PTN=18034=146.∠PTN = 180 - 34 = 146.
Since NQM=28∠NQM = 28 and PMQ=34∠PMQ = 34, in QMN\triangle QMN, QNM=1802834=118∠QNM = 180 - 28 - 34 = 118.
In cyclic quadrilateral PTMNPTMN, PTN+PMN=180∠PTN + ∠PMN = 180.
PMN=PMQ=34∠PMN = ∠PMQ = 34. So PTN=18034=146∠PTN = 180 - 34 = 146.
So, QTN=146°∠QTN = 146°.

3. Final Answer

B. 146°
