HELP ME PLEASEE, based on the given information, what can you conclude, and why?
two triangular are similar triangular KJL and JHI because <h=<l HJ=JL and <J1=J2
i cant understand what do you mean?
@phi can you help me
First, mark what "parts" (angles or sides) are congruent based on the info they gave you.
can you do that?
Yes sorry computer crashed. |dw:1355519602786:dw|
|dw:1355519695857:dw|
help???
yes, you have the correct angles but I can't tell which sides are marked. Just put a little hash mark through the 2 sides that are congruent.
ok

yes, looks good. you have angle-side (so far) to prove congruence we could try for side-angle-side (that means show side HI= side LK) or angle-side-angle (show the angles at J are =) take a peak at this http://www.mathsisfun.com/geometry/vertical-angles.html
so basically ^HIJ and ^LKJ are congruent by ASA?
yes, the angles at J are "vertical angles" btw, this require that line IJL is a straight line (like in .jpg image. The way you drew it, it does not look straight...) but, you have angle-side-angle
Its hard to draw on here sorry but ok, and its the symbol is |dw:1355520575303:dw| not |dw:1355520610818:dw| wwhen naming the angles?
o:
or its just a typo on the paper idk are those even symbols
yes nevermind XD thanks for helping again o;
The symbol of angle is ∠ sort of a L shape a closed triangle symbol △ means triangle In both cases they give the vertices (corners). For the angle, the middle letter is the "corner" of the angle
ok. i think its just a paper typo.
