I know that the beginning of the two column proof is 
segment SP perpendicular to QP   --  Given
segment SR perpendicular to QR  -- Given
segment SP congruent to SR  -- Given

perl · Answer

the hypotenuse they share is side SQ, and they both have a congruent leg

perl · Answer

segment SP perpendicular to QP -- Given
 segment SR perpendicular to QR -- Given 
segment SP congruent to SR -- Given
segment SQ congruent to segment SQ - reflexive property of line segments
triangle SPQ congruent to SRQ - Hypotenuse Leg Congruence theorem
<PQS congruent <RQS - Corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent ray QS bisects <PQR - definition of angle bisector
