Geometry Difficulty 3.0 AMC 10/12 Find the answer Canada

In the diagram, RR is the point of intersection of PTPT and QSQS, PQ=PRPQ = PR, and RS=RTRS = RT. If ∠PQR=2x∘\angle PQR = 2x^\circ, then the measure of ∠RST\angle RST, in degrees, is

(A) 45−x45 - x (B) 90+12x90 + \frac{1}{2}x (C) 90−12x90 - \frac{1}{2}x (D) 45+2x45 + 2x (E) 90−x90 - x
