1.) Identify the triangle congruence postulate or theorem (SSS, SAS, ASA, AAS, or HL) that proves the
triangles are congruent. If the triangles are not congruent, state not congruent.
HINT: label the corresponding congruent parts in just one of the triangles.
(6 total points: 1 point for each correct congruence postulate)
PLEASE NEED HELP ASAP!!

Respuesta :

Two triangles are congruent if they meet they both meet the rules for congruency

The rules that makes the given triangles congruency are;

a) SSS

(b) SAS

(c) ASA

(d) Not congruent

(e) AAS

(f) HL

Reasons:

(a) Segment QS ≅ Segment QR; Same number of tic marks indicating congruency

Segment SP ≅ Segment PR; Same number of tic marks indicating congruency

Segment QP ≅ Segment QP; Reflexive property

Therefore;

  • ΔPQS ≅ ΔPQR by Side-Side-Side, SSS, rule of congruency

(b) Segments AC, BC, on ΔABC ≅  Segments CD, CE, on ΔCDE Given

m∠DCE ≅ m∠ACB; Vertically opposite angles postulate

Therefore;

  • ΔABC ≅ ΔDEC by Side-Angle-Side SAS, rule of congruency

(c) Segment ST ≅ Segment TU; Given

m∠RST = m∠VUT = 90°; Given

∠VTU = ∠RTS; By vertical angle theorem

Therefore;

  • ΔRTS ≅ ΔUTV by Angle-Side-Angle, ASA, rule of congruency

(d) Not congruent because given parameter Side Side Angle not a condition for congruency

Not congruent

(e) ∠GHJ ≅ ∠GFJ; Given

∠HJG ≅ ∠JGF; Given

Segment GJ ≅ Segment GJ; By reflexive property

Therefore;

  • ΔGFJ ≅ ΔGJH; By Angle-Angle-Side, AAS similarity rule

(f) Hypotenuse AB ≅ Hypotenuse DE; Given

Leg AC ≅ Leg DF; Given

Therefore;

  • ΔABC ≅ ΔDFE; by Hypotenuse Leg, HL, rule of congruency
