Answer:

∠ L = 109°

Explanation:

Since the triangles are congruent, then corresponding angles are congruent.

Thus ∠ J = ∠ G , substitute values

3x + 12 = 2x + 19 ( subtract 2x from both sides )

x + 12 = 19 ( subtract 12 from both sides )

x = 7

Then

∠ G = 2x + 19 = 2(7) + 19 = 14 + 19 = 33°

∠ H = 4x + 10 = 4(7) + 10 = 28 + 10 = 38°

By the sum of angles in a triangle = 180°, then

∠ F = 180° - (33 + 38)° = 180° - 71° = 109°

∠ F and ∠ L correspond , thus

∠ L = ∠ F = 109°
