I assume the two given rays are parallel. Then I'll draw another parallel ray through Q and apply known theorems about parallel lines on a plane.

Please show us what you have tried and exactly where you are stuck.

I have added two points \(S~\&~T\).

Now \(m(\angle TRQ)+m(\angle QRP)+m(\angle QPR)+m(\angle SPQ)=2\pi(180^o)\) why?
Also \(m(\angle PQR)=2\pi-m(\angle RPQ)-m(\angle QRP)\) WHY?
 
I know the answer for the reflex angle is 360-67= 293 but I just don’t understand how you know to do that.
 
I worked it out thank you! By adding that extra line you are able to work out the angles that are adjacent to 29 and 38. Thanks so much!
