What else would need to be congruent to show that EFG = JKL by SSS? http://media.apexlearning.com/Images/201001/28/fa763fd6-2ebc-473b-b19d- 67a3a2409aca.jpg A. F K B. EF JK C. EF FG D. E J

help

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

when are two shapes congruents?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

when they are beside each other?

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

besides each meaning? next to each other?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i dont know

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

once you know what makes a congruent polygon with another, then you'd have your answer, by SSS(side side side)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so your saying that E is congruent to J and G is congruent to L

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

well, is a given from the picture, yes

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

in this case you have 2 S, from SSS(sides sides sides) already GIVEN in the picture, so the answer lies on the 3rd S(side)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so its gonna to be F to K

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

well, you have sides, EF, FG and EG on the 1st figure, F and K would be angles \(\angle\)

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

so, to make them both congruents \(EG\cong ???\)

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

erk I meant

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

so, to make them both congruents \(EF\cong???\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

to jk

OpenStudy (anonymous):

like ef to jk

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

yes, \(EF\cong JK\)

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

once all sides are congruents, so are the polygons
