i think it will be A but not completely sure

anonymous · Answer

I though it was "A" too :P

anonymous · Answer

Because the corresponding angles are congruent, you know the two vertical lines are parallel. You also know the vertical angles where the triangles meet are congruent.However, until you prove the triangles are congruent using AAS you cannot state that the other corresponding sides are congruent. Therefore, the best answer would be B.

Yeah.. it wasn't A :P Its B :) Thanks :)
