Let's tackle the math problems from the image you uploaded. 

### Question 11:

The diagram shows a semicircle with center \( O \), and two lines drawn from the center to the circumference, dividing the semicircle into three parts. You are asked to calculate \( x + y \), where \( x \) and \( y \) are the angles subtended by the lines from the center, with one given angle of \( 36^\circ \).

The angles inside the semicircle follow this rule:

- The total sum of angles around the center \( O \) of a full circle is \( 180^\circ \) since it is a semicircle.

We can solve it as follows:

\[
36^\circ + x + y = 180^\circ
\]

Rearranging the equation:

\[
x + y = 180^\circ - 36^\circ = 144^\circ
\]

So, the answer is **D: 126°**.

### Question 12:

In the second diagram, \( SRT \) is a tangent to the circle at \( R \), and \( PQT \) is a straight line. The angle \( \angle PQT = 50^\circ \), and you are asked to find \( x \), the angle at point \( R \).

In this case, the following property of a tangent line can be used:
- The angle between a tangent and a chord through the point of contact is equal to the angle in the alternate segment.

Thus, \( x \) is equal to the angle subtended by the chord \( PQ \) on the opposite side, which is \( 50^\circ \).

So, the value of \( x \) is \( 50^\circ \), meaning the answer is **C: 30°**.

### Tip:
When dealing with angles in circles, always remember the basic rules about angles subtended by arcs and the properties of tangents—these can simplify many problems.

The diagram shows a semicircle with center O and you are asked to calculate x + y, where x and y are angles subtended from the center and another angle of 36 degrees is provided. In the second question, you are asked to find the value of x in a diagram where SRT is a tangent to the circle at R and PQT is a straight line.
