    136°

    Explanation:

    Theorem: The measure of the angle formed by a tangent and a chord is equal to one-half the measure of the intercepted arc.

    In the diagram below, PR is the chord, PRS is the tangent, and PQR is the intercepted arc.

    Per the theorem,

    mPRS = ½mPQR

    mPQR = 2mPRS = 2 * 68° = 136°

    The measure of the intersected arc is 136°.
