Triangle RST is congruent to triangle R'S'T'. If RS s represented by 4x-1, R'S' is represented by 3x+3, and RT is represented by x+6, find the R'T'.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Congruent means same lengths and angles for all sides. So, RS = R'S'. That means, 4x - 1 = 3x + 3. Solve for x. Substitute that value to find R'T'

??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

HEY SORRY

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i got x=4

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So, R'T' = ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well it says that RT is congruent to R'T'

OpenStudy (anonymous):

RT=X+6

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Correct.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so i add 4+6 which is 10...so R'T IS 10 then

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yep.

thank you! :]
