To find the pairs of congruent corresponding angles in the triangles \( \triangle MNO \) and \( \triangle RTS \), we can compare the measures of the angles:

In \( \triangle MNO \):

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

In \( \triangle RTS \):

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

Now, we can match the angles of both triangles based on their measures:

  • \( \angle M \) corresponds to \( \angle R \) (both are \( 78° \))
  • \( \angle N \) corresponds to \( \angle T \) (both are \( 34° \))
  • \( \angle O \) corresponds to \( \angle S \) (both are \( 68° \))

Thus, the congruent corresponding angles are:

  • \( \angle M \cong \angle R \)
  • \( \angle N \cong \angle T \)
  • \( \angle O \cong \angle S \)

The correct response is: ∠M≅∠R , ∠N≅∠T , ∠O≅∠S.
