To determine the pairs of congruent corresponding angles in the two triangles \( \triangle MNO \) and \( \triangle RTS \):

In \( \triangle MNO \):

  • \( m∠M = 78° \)
  • \( m∠N = 34° \)
  • \( m∠O = 68° \)

In \( \triangle RTS \):

  • \( m∠S = 68° \)
  • \( m∠R = 78° \)
  • \( m∠T = 34° \)

Now we can match the angles:

  1. For \( ∠M \) and \( ∠R \):

    • \( m∠M = 78° \) is congruent to \( m∠R = 78° \)
    • So, \( ∠M ≅ ∠R \)
  2. For \( ∠N \) and \( ∠T \):

    • \( m∠N = 34° \) is congruent to \( m∠T = 34° \)
    • So, \( ∠N ≅ ∠T \)
  3. For \( ∠O \) and \( ∠S \):

    • \( m∠O = 68° \) is congruent to \( m∠S = 68° \)
    • So, \( ∠O ≅ ∠S \)

Thus, the pairs of congruent corresponding angles in the two triangles are:

  • \( ∠M ≅ ∠R \)
  • \( ∠N ≅ ∠T \)
  • \( ∠O ≅ ∠S \)

This matches with the option:

∠M≅∠R, ∠N≅∠T, ∠O≅∠S

So the final answer is:

angle upper M congruent to angle upper R, angle upper N congruent to angle upper T, angle upper O congruent to angle upper S.
