Which postulate can be used to prove that ADB CDB
Side BD is shared. Look at the marked-up attachment. So, segment BD is congruent to segment BD by the Reflexive Property. Why are the triangles congruent? Which postulate? @ameiliam
Do you think its Side - Side - Side (SSS) Side - Angle - Side (SAS) Angle - Side - Angle (ASA) or Angle - Angle - Side (AAS)
SSS

@The triangles are congruent cause the reflexive property it'd either be SAS or SSS @DIRECTRIX
or Asa
ASA or SSS
Well, we do not have any pairs of congruent angles given. So, nothing with an "A" will be correct.
oooh okay
@ameiliam So, which of these is it: >> ASA or SSS ?
If it doesn't have angles it wouldn't include A?
sss
SSS Postulate. That is what I got, too.
If it doesn't have angles it wouldn't include A? @directrix
@Directrix How come you only tell me? Other people also give answers without explanations. I gave the answer in hopes of someone asking HOW I got my answer, then work backwards to understand the problem. I like doing that.
>>>> If it doesn't have angles it wouldn't include A? For this problem, no As. Look at the attached diagram below. And, take a look at the discussion at this link: http://www.mathwarehouse.com/geometry/congruent_triangles/ @ameiliam
