Please somebody help me with this question, I don’t really get it:

The triangles are shown congruent. Find the measure of angle P.

MLK is congruent to RQP.

A. 43 degrees
B. 32 degrees
C. 105 degrees
D. 37.5 degrees

Triangle 1 measures: MK: 43 degrees. ML: 32 degrees

I added them together and it was 75

Triangle 2 measures: PQR: 105

I added 105 + 75 and it was 180.

(There is a picture of the triangles but it doesn’t let me post the link)

Note that MLK ~ RQP, not PQR.
That may make a difference.
the letters correspond to the vertices
K and P are congruent
as are M and R
and L and Q

MK and ML are sides
...not measured in degrees

just post the size of any of the angles that are given
After you get 75, divide 75 by two and you have your answer D
I just took the test the answer is A
