@ganeshie8 can you help me please

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

look at the triangles and can u tell me if u see any congruent angles/sides ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It looks like all of the angles are congruent

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

nope, in geometry looks will not work :) look at the triangles, they both have one angle marked wid green arc.

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

thats a sign which tells us that, those both angles are equal angle C = angle F

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

she knows that AC = DF

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So its B

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

so we have one SIDE one ANGLE that are equal between both triangles

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ok

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

we need another SIDE to use SAS postulate
