Answer:

Being both triangles similar, the angles S and O must be congruent.

Step-by-step explanation:

The SAS or Side-Angle-Side Theorem

Two triangles are similar if two of the sides are proportional and the included angle, or the angle between those sides, is the same.

We are given that:

* Angle SPT is congruent with angle OPT

* Side SP is congruent with side OP

* Both triangles share the same side TP

This makes both triangles to be similar according to the SAS theorem: Sides SP and TP and included angle SPT correspond to sides OP and TP, and included angle OPT.

Being both triangles similar, the angles S and O must be congruent.
