Question

What are the last two statements of this proof?

Answer 1

Given \[RS \approx UT \] and \[RT \approx US\] prove triangle RST and triangle UTS are congruent. And by the approx. symbols I mean congruent :)

Answer 2

TS is the same as ST

Answer 3

what rule is that?

Answer 4

so ST = TS is the same as saying either

ST = ST

or

TS = TS

Answer 5

What's the rule of that it it SSS or?

Answer 6

what property says ST = ST or TS = TS

Answer 7

i dont know

Answer 8

Answer 9

wait is it reflexive prperty of congruence?

Answer 10

yep

Answer 11

so that's your first reason

Answer 12

and yes, you use the SSS postulate for the second reason

Answer 13

ok thx

Answer 14
