$$In the diagram below, \angle PQR = \angle PRQ = \angle STR = \angle TSR, RQ = 8, and SQ = 3. Find PQ. [asy] pair A,B,C,D,E; A = (0, 0.9); B = (-0.4, 0); C = (0.4, 0); D = (-0.275, 0.16); E = (0.11, 0.65); draw(A--B); draw(A--C); draw(B--C); draw(B--E); draw(C--D); label("P",A,N); label("Q", B, S); label("R", C, S); label("S", D, S); label("T", E, W); [/asy]$$

$$PQ = \boxed{\frac{50 \sqrt{2}}{7}}$$

You should rather say thanks.

Also when it's wrong or right.

I meant: Thanks man, but it is wrong.

So I suppose it is a  reasonable answer.      Garbage in, garbage out.

I don't care if the problem is garbage. I just want to get the problem right, learn more, and get more knowledge.

If you want to get something right you must display it in a form suitable for the media.

Are you incapable of comprehending that?

It says, in Latex, (you haven't bothered to write it in English) "In the digatram below"

There is no diagram, it is just a bunch or unrendered code.

I would not bother with this if I were you.  Stick to 2+2.  You should not try to move on too quickly.
