In the figure, if MR = MK, the measure of arc MK is 130 degrees, and measure of arc MQ is 23 degrees, then what is angle RPK, in degrees?
arc RK = 360 - 260 = 100º
∠RMK = 100 / 2 = 50º
∠MKQ = 23 / 2 = 11.5º
∠KPM = 180 - (50 + 11.5) = 118.5º
∠RPK = 1/2 (360 - 118.5 * 2) = 61.5º

Let X be the centre
Mz understanding of the question is that
and you want
When two angles stand on the same arc, the angle at the centre is twice the angle on the circumference,
so
None of the other info is relevant.
