Answer:
∠ S = 80°
Explanation:
Since the triangles are congruent then corresponding angles are congruent.
∠ T = ∠ B = 5x - 27
The sum of the angles in Δ STU = 180°
Sum the 3 angles and equate to 180
4x + 12 + 5x - 27 + 3x - 9 = 180 , that is
12x - 24 = 180 ( add 24 to both sides )
12x = 204 (divide both sides by 12 )
x = 17
Then
∠ S = 4x + 12 = 4(17) + 12 = 68 + 12 = 80°
