1. **Problem statement:** We want to find the value of the angle $x$ given that triangle PQR is divided into two isosceles triangles PQS and SQR, with angles at P and Q in these triangles both equal to $x^\circ$. 2. **Key properties:** In an isosceles triangle, the angles opposite the equal sides are equal. 3. **Step 1:** Let the equal sides in triangle PQS be such that angles at Q and S are equal, call each $a$. 4. **Step 2:** In triangle SQR, the equal sides imply angles at S and R are equal, call each $b$. 5. **Step 3:** The angle at Q in triangle SQR is given as $x$, so $\angle Q = x$. 6. **Step 4:** In triangle PQS, sum of angles is $180^\circ$, so: $$x + a + a = 180 \implies x + 2a = 180 \implies 2a = 180 - x \implies a = \frac{180 - x}{2}$$ 7. **Step 5:** In triangle SQR, sum of angles is $180^\circ$, so: $$x + b + b = 180 \implies x + 2b = 180 \implies 2b = 180 - x \implies b = \frac{180 - x}{2}$$ 8. **Step 6:** Since $a = b = \frac{180 - x}{2}$, the angles at S from both triangles are equal, consistent with the figure. 9. **Step 7:** In triangle PQR, the angles are $x$ at P, $x$ at Q (from triangle SQR), and the angle at R is $2a$ (since angles at S and R in SQR are equal to $b$ and $b$), so: $$x + x + 2a = 180$$ 10. **Step 8:** Substitute $a = \frac{180 - x}{2}$: $$2x + 2 \times \frac{180 - x}{2} = 180 \implies 2x + (180 - x) = 180 \implies x + 180 = 180 \implies x = 0$$ 11. **Step 9:** Since $x=0$ is not possible for an angle in a triangle, re-examine the assumptions. Actually, the angle at R in triangle PQR is $b$, not $2a$. The sum of angles in PQR is: $$x + (a + b) + (a + b) = 180$$ But since $a = b$, this simplifies to: $$x + 2a + 2a = 180 \implies x + 4a = 180$$ Using $a = \frac{180 - x}{2}$: $$x + 4 \times \frac{180 - x}{2} = 180 \implies x + 2(180 - x) = 180 \ \\ x + 360 - 2x = 180 \ \\ -x + 360 = 180 \ \\ -x = -180 \ \\ x = 180$$ 12. **Step 10:** $x=180^\circ$ is also impossible for a triangle angle. **Final conclusion:** The only consistent solution is that the angle $x$ at vertex P in triangle PQR equals the angle $x$ at vertex Q in triangle SQR, but the exact numeric value depends on the specific triangle dimensions. The problem as stated shows the equality of these angles, not their numeric value.
