The image shows a circle with labeled points \( S \), \( P \), \( Q \), and \( R \). The question asks for the relationship between \( \angle PSQ \) and \( \angle RSQ \), with the angles along the arc of the circle. 

Given the following:

- \( \angle PSQ \) subtends an arc \( PQ \) of \( x \) degrees.
- \( \angle RSQ \) subtends an arc \( QR \) of \( 2x \) degrees.

### To solve:
- Angles subtended by the same arc at the circumference of a circle are proportional to the arcs they subtend. Since \( \angle PSQ \) subtends an arc of \( x \) degrees, and \( \angle RSQ \) subtends an arc of \( 2x \) degrees, we know that:

\[
\angle RSQ = 2 \times \angle PSQ
\]

Thus, the relationship between \( \angle PSQ \) and \( \angle RSQ \) is that \( \angle RSQ \) is twice \( \angle PSQ \).

Let me know if you'd like more detailed explanations, or if you have any questions!

### Further Questions:
1. What is the formula for finding the angle subtended by an arc in a circle?
2. How does the central angle relate to the angle at the circumference subtending the same arc?
3. Can you explain why angles subtended by the same arc are equal?
4. What other types of angle relationships exist in a circle (e.g., inscribed angles, central angles)?
5. How would this problem change if it were asking for the central angles instead of angles at the circumference?

**Tip**: Always remember that angles subtended by the same arc at the circumference of a circle are equal.
