x + SQR = QRT (As they are alternate angles since QR is transversal)
x + 28° = 65°
∴ x = 37°
It is also known that alternate interior angles are same and so,
QSR = x = 37°
QRS + QRT = 180° (As they are a Linear pair)
QRS + 65° = 180°
QRS = 115°
Now, we know that the sum of the angles in a quadrilateral is 360°
P + Q + R + S = 360°
Putting their respective values, we get,
S = 360° - 90° - 65° - 115°
In Δ SPQ
∠SPQ + x + y = 180°
90° + 37° + y = 180°
y = 180° – 127° = 53°
Hence, y = 53°
