so xz wy

nirmalnema · Answer

XW= XY given
XZ=XZ common between two triangles
then angle
WXZ=YXZ because angle z is bisected by line xz

superdavesuper · Answer

yup yup so u got the two S in SAS...the only thing u need is the angle between the two lines which is angle WXZ and YXZ :)

nirmalnema · Answer

it is congurent because two sides and angle between these two are equal..
so it fulfills all the conditions of SAS congruency rule
