Question

I WILL GIVE A MEDAL TO ANYONE WHO HELPS
As part of the proof Jemma showed that angle BAC is congruent to angle EDF, and angle BCA is congruent to angle EFD. Using these two congruencies, which of these other steps would Jemma have likely performed to prove that the two triangles are congruent by the AAS postulate?

Answer 1

Place the compass on B and set the width to side BC.

Place the compass on B and draw a pair of arcs that meet at C.

Place the compass on B and draw an arc that crosses side BC at X and side AB at Y.

Place the compass on A and set the width to side AC.

Answer 2

I have a feeling it is A but I ma not to sure

Answer 3

AAS, you have two angles so you need one of the sides that isn't inbetweem the angles. You're feeling is right on but understand fully why this is true.

Answer 4

I just figured I neeeded 2 angles that were before the side so it couldn't be AC and the other 2 just made absolutely no sense at all
