Final answer:

Since △ HPT can be mapped onto △ AIM by a translation and m∠ P=41°, then m∠ I of △ AIM will also be 41°.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question asks about the angle of a triangle in a translation. In geometry, a translation moves every point of a figure or a space by the same distance in a given direction.

Therefore, corresponding angles between two triangles that are images of each other by translation remain equal. Since m∠ P is given as 41° for △ HPT and △ HPT can be mapped onto △ AIM by translation, then the corresponding angle △ AIM, which would be m∠ I, is also 41°.
