Answer:
[tex]\huge\boxed{\sf p = 48\°}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Since, interior angles of a triangle add up to 180 degrees.
So,
S + Q + R = 180°
S + 44 + 40 = 180
S + 84 = 180
Subtract 84 to both sides
S = 180 - 84
S = 96°
Since S is divided into two p angles because ST is an angle bisector (dividing the angle into two "equal" parts)
So,
S = p + p
S = 2p
96 = 2p
Divide both sides by 2
48 = p
OR
p = 48°
