Solution

It is given that line YQ bisects ∠PYZ.

Hence, ∠QYP = ∠ZYQ

It can be observed that PX is a line. Rays YQ and YZ stand on it.

∴ ∠XYZ + ∠ZYQ + ∠QYP = 180º

⇒ 64º + 2∠QYP = 180º

⇒ 2∠QYP = 180º − 64º = 116º

⇒ ∠QYP = 58º

Also, ∠ZYQ = ∠QYP = 58º

Reflex QYP = 360º − 58º = 302º

XYQ = XYZ + ZYQ

= 64º + 58º = 122º
