In a quadrilateral ABCD, the diagonals bisect each other at point T. Based on the given information which statement is presented first to show that side AB is equal to side BC? Angle ADT is congruent to Angle ATB. Angle ATB is congruent to Angle CTB. Side BC is equal to the diagonal AC of the quadrilateral. Side AB is equal to the diagonal DB of the quadrilateral.

what did you get

hmmm not sure
does it give you a picture
no
then it's missing info because it's implying that we're dealing with a rhombus, but we need to know if the diagonals are perpendicular or not
i believe they are always perpendicular
yeah in a rhombus they are, but we're not told that
it just says ABCD is a quadrilateral
@jim_thompson5910
what do u think
yeah I agree, but something is still missing I know the answer, it just seems odd why they left off this crucial piece of info
these two angles must be congruent in order for AB = BC |dw:1359853664857:dw|
because you can then use the SAS rule to say triangle ATB = triangle CTB then use CPCTC to say AB = BC
ok thx...one more?
The figure shows a pattern of a regular hexagon and equilateral triangles. Which of the following describes the correct method to find the measure of angle y? The exterior angle of the hexagon is the angle of the equilateral triangle. y = 60°. The exterior angle of the hexagon is the interior angle of the equilateral triangle. y = 180° – 60°. The exterior angle of the hexagon is the exterior angle of the equilateral triangle. y = 180° – 120°. The interior angle of the equilateral triangle and y are supplementary angles. y = 90° - 60°.
ok last one
