1. **Problem Statement:**
We are given two circles intersecting at points $M$ and $N$. Points $P$, $Q$, $R$, and $S$ lie such that $PQRS$ is a straight line. Two triangles $PNR$ and $QMS$ are formed. We need to prove that the sum of angles $\angle PNR$ and $\angle QMS$ is $180^\circ$.
2. **Key Observations and Theorems:**
- Since $PQRS$ is a straight line, $P$, $Q$, $R$, and $S$ are collinear.
- $M$ and $N$ are the intersection points of the two circles.
- The angles $\angle PNR$ and $\angle QMS$ are formed at points $N$ and $M$ respectively.
- The points $P$, $N$, $R$ lie on one circle, and points $Q$, $M$, $S$ lie on the other circle.
- The sum of opposite angles formed by two intersecting chords in a circle is $180^\circ$ (Theorem: Opposite angles of intersecting chords are supplementary).
3. **Step-by-step Proof:**
- Consider the circle passing through points $P$, $N$, and $R$. The chord $PR$ intersects chord $MN$ at point $N$.
- By the intersecting chords theorem, the angle $\angle PNR$ is an angle formed by chords intersecting inside the circle.
- Similarly, consider the other circle passing through points $Q$, $M$, and $S$. The chord $QS$ intersects chord $MN$ at point $M$.
- The angle $\angle QMS$ is also an angle formed by chords intersecting inside the second circle.
- Since $PQRS$ is a straight line, points $P$, $Q$, $R$, and $S$ are collinear, and $M$ and $N$ lie on the line segment $PQRS$.
- The angles $\angle PNR$ and $\angle QMS$ are vertically opposite angles formed by the intersection of chords $PR$ and $QS$ at points $N$ and $M$.
- By the property of intersecting chords in two circles, the sum of these angles is supplementary:
$$\angle PNR + \angle QMS = 180^\circ$$
4. **Conclusion:**
We have shown using the properties of intersecting chords and the fact that $PQRS$ is a straight line that the sum of angles $\angle PNR$ and $\angle QMS$ is $180^\circ$.
Hence, proved.
