Question

Help?

Answer 1

Which fact could you use to help prove that ΔAED~ΔBEC using Side-Angle-Side?

Answer 2

1. ABIICB
2. CE = (DE)
3.CE= BE
DE AE
4. AD=CB

Answer 3

1. ABIICB is false because AB and CB share a common point (ie they intersect). So they are NOT parallel. So you can eliminate this answer choice

Answer 4

Oka and it's not 4, I think it's 3.

Answer 5

as for choice 2, why is DE in parenthesis? Is it supposed to be something like CE = 2*(DE)???

Answer 6

yes it's definitely not choice 4

Answer 7

C=1/3 D

Answer 8

oh ok, thank you

Answer 9

choice 3 has two fractions right?

Answer 10

Yes

Answer 11

then you're 100% correct since the equal ratios point to the fact that the two triangles are similar

Answer 12

Oka. thanks so much!

Answer 13

you're welcome
