Answer:

  • 28°

Step-by-step explanation:

We can see the scale factor is 2 from the side lengths:

  • 8→16, 15→30, 17→34

Corresponding sides are:

  • AB and DE
  • AC and DF
  • BC and EF

Corresponding angles are opposite to corresponding sides:

  • ∠C≅∠F
  • ∠A≅∠D
  • ∠B≅∠E

So

  • m∠A = 90° - 62° = 28°

Therefore

  • m∠D = 28°
