Answer:

  • m∠S =78°

---------------------

Given

  • Two congruent triangles △MNP≅△QST

We know that corresponding angles of congruent triangles are congruent (vertices in same order as name of triangle):

  • ∠M ≅ ∠Q, ∠N ≅ ∠S, ∠P ≅ ∠T

Angle S corresponds to angle N, hence their values are equal:

  • m∠S = m∠N = 78°
