@ganeshie8 can you help him for mee

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

same ticks on two sides mean, those sides are equal

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

we have Side Angle Side in triangle equal to Side Angle Side in another triangle

OpenStudy (anonymous):

he is an idiot jus like me so if you can . plz explain it lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

v_v

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

lol you're not

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

i can

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thankyou , ima go ask questions laterz

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

look at first triangle @FeedMeFooood

OpenStudy (anonymous):

k

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

do u see small dashes on sides ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

those are our signs, we need to follow them, in finding out which postulate to apply

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

In first triangle, how many sides have these 'dashes' ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

good, wat about second triangle ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

same as the first

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

and do you notice a lil square box in the corner of each triangle ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

that says, that Angle is equal between both triangles

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

Overall, you have two Sides equal, and one Angle equal eh ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ya

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so its SAS right?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

and the Angle is in between sides. so its this postuylate :- Side Ange Side

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

wow! you're brilliant. yes its called SAS

OpenStudy (anonymous):

kk thanks ^^

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
