small dashes are the signs that tell u sides are congruent

ganeshie8 · Answer

AH and EM has one dash on them, so they are congruent

ganeshie8 · Answer

AL and LE have two dashes on them, so they are congruent

ganeshie8 · Answer

So, its given that two SIDES are congruent

ganeshie8 · Answer

to use SSS postulate, u need to prove all 3 SIDES are congruent, so what do you think ?

i have no idea.

ganeshie8 · Answer

its okay, since you're given 2 sides are congruent. 
u need 1 more side to be congruent, to prove triangles are congruent by SSS
