Triangles J K L and M N R are shown.
In the diagram, ∠J ≅ ∠M and JL ≅ MR. What additional information is needed to show ΔJKL ≅ △MNR by SAS?

KL ≅ NR
∠L ≅ ∠R
∠K ≅ ∠N
JK ≅ MN

Respuesta :

Answer:

JK ≅ MN

Step-by-step explanation:

SAS states that any two sides of the angle and the angle itself, if , of two triangles are equal the two triangles are equal.

It is given that  ∠J ≅ ∠M and JL ≅ MR   i.e an angle and a side are equal. We need one more side to prove that the two triangles are equal.

If we look at the diagram closely we see that the angles J and M are formed by the sides JK & JL  and MN& MR.

It is given that JL ≅ MR  so we are left with JK ≅ MN

The additional information needed prove that ΔJKL ≅ ΔMNR by SAS Congruence Theorem is: D. JK ≅ MN

Recall:

  • The SAS Congruence Theorem proves that two triangles are congruent to each other if they have two pairs of congruent sides and a pair of included congruent angles.

The image attached below shows ΔJKL and ΔMNR where we are given the following:

∠J ≅ ∠M (one pair of congruent angles).

JL ≅ MR (one pair of congruent sides).

Therefore, the additional information needed prove that ΔJKL ≅ ΔMNR by SAS Congruence Theorem is: D. JK ≅ MN
