To determine the congruent corresponding angles in the triangles △MNO and △RTS, let's first list the angles in both triangles:

In triangle MNO:

  • m∠M = 78°
  • m∠N = 34°
  • m∠O = 68°

In triangle RTS:

  • m∠R = 78°
  • m∠T = 34°
  • m∠S = 68°

Now we can match the angles based on their measures.

  • Since m∠M = 78° and m∠R = 78°, we have: ∠M ≅ ∠R

  • Since m∠N = 34° and m∠T = 34°, we have: ∠N ≅ ∠T

  • Since m∠O = 68° and m∠S = 68°, we have: ∠O ≅ ∠S

Thus, the pairs of congruent corresponding angles are:

  • ∠M ≅ ∠R
  • ∠N ≅ ∠T
  • ∠O ≅ ∠S

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