Geometry Help Needed! :) The figure below shows two congruent triangular parks. What equation would help you to solve for the side length of BC and EF? Explain your reasoning using complete sentences. I need help understanding this as well as help to find the answer. Thanks.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@ayoubEpst No this is what we are given

@FibonacciChick666 Thank you !

OpenStudy (fibonaccichick666):

So they are congruent, what does that mean?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

They have the same measures in length and angle degrees.

OpenStudy (fibonaccichick666):

good so, which sides(using point to point names) are the same?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

all angles ??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

AB and DE are the same . DF and AC are the same . and the two sides with the equations or partial equations are the same
