A. HIJ=LKJ by ASA B. HIJ=JLK by SAS C. HIJ=JLK by ASA

Directrix (directrix):

Why is angle 1 congruent to angle 2? Look on the attachment below.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A. ?

Directrix (directrix):

Answer my question first, please. :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i am loading your pic- i didnt get it until after i answered mine

Directrix (directrix):

I know. It's okay. Take your time.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i dont know

Directrix (directrix):

Go to the link given here and then you'll know what kind of angles 1 and 2 are and also how they are related. Please take a second to do that now. Return and post what kind of angles 1 and 2 are and how you think they are related. Be brave. http://www.mathsisfun.com/geometry/vertical-angles.html

OpenStudy (anonymous):

vertical angles are equal

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i knew they were vertical angles, i didnt know that is what you are asking

OpenStudy (anonymous):

that doesnt make a triangle congruent, correct?

Directrix (directrix):

Great. So, now look at the two triangles. Why are they congruent. Open the attached file.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so that does prove HIJ=LKJ by ASA (A)

Directrix (directrix):

Yes, it does.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thank you
