Question

help

Answer 1

Based off the triangle what do you know ?

Answer 2

triangles*

Answer 3

I know that angle DG is congruent to angle Hf and angle DE is congruent to angle HE and Angle GE is congruent to anGle FE

Answer 4

and angle E and angle E is reflexive property

Answer 5

when naming a single angle, use the letter that it represents
using two letters means a segment not an angle

Answer 6

but you have the right idea

Answer 7

angle D = angle h
angle g = angle f
DG = FH
angle e = angle e

Answer 8

GE = EF
DE = EH

Answer 9

all of those are given correct?

Answer 10

yes

Answer 11

so what theorems/postulates can you use then?

Answer 12

AAA/SSS/SAS/ASA/

Answer 13

isnt DE congruent to HE? not EH?

Answer 14

It's the same thing

Answer 15

E is a bisector of the segment DH
making DE = HE or DE = EH
either way

Answer 16

UM ITS ASA?

Answer 17

yeah, you could also use SAS as well

Answer 18

but after proving that angle E and angle E are reflexive, isnt there more to prove?

Answer 19

DG = FH, given
GE = EF , given
DE = EH , given

angle D = angle h , opposite interior angles
angle g = angle f , opposite interior angles
angle e = angle e , reflexive property

Answer 20

Isnt there another name for "opposite interior angles"

Answer 21

alternate interior angles*
sorry i slept during my geometry class a few years back xD

Answer 22

cant we say that angle d is perpendicular to angle F? ;o

Answer 23

nope, they dont form right angles,

Answer 24

ah ok. so then after saying that that what else can we say?

Answer 25

well angle e is also a vertical angle

Answer 26

so the vertical angle theorem works too

Answer 27

so then what theorom is it? the vertica. theorem or the ASA theorem?

Answer 28

you prove it with asa/sas/ you can just say that angle e = angle cause of vertical angle theorem

Answer 29

instead of alternate interior angles, isnt it alternate exterior angles?

Answer 30

i just wanna make sure

Answer 31

not really sure, my geometry is rusty.

Answer 32

its fine, i guess. im going to double check with a friend of mine later. thank you though:)

Answer 33
