To find the measures of angles T and S, we can use the fact that the sum of the angles in a triangle is always 180 degrees.

m∠R + m∠S + m∠T = 180°

We know that m∠R = 29°, and we can use the Law of Cosines to find the measure of angle S:

cos(m∠S) = (6^2 + 3^2 - x^2) / (2 * 6 * 3) = 0.9167

m∠S = cos^-1(0.9167) = 23.6°

Now we can use the fact that the sum of the angles in a triangle is 180 degrees to find the measure of angle T:

m∠T = 180° - m∠R - m∠S = 180° - 29° - 23.6° = 127.4°

Therefore, m∠T is 127.4° and m∠S is 23.6°.
