I'll FAN you plus MEDAL! I need help with writing a proof!

OpenStudy (juicstice):

The given statement for #1 is because of alternate exterior angles

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok.....but how do I prove they are congruent? @Juicstice

OpenStudy (juicstice):

that was part one I'm figuring the rest out

OpenStudy (anonymous):

http://sketchtoy.com/61335119 is it clear enough to understand xD

OpenStudy (juicstice):

CD ~ CD because of reflexive property

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I think I'll have to use CPCTC at some point right? @Juicstice

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh and CB is also reflexive property to right!?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

since they are the same line on each triangle? @Juicstice

OpenStudy (juicstice):

No, CB is not part of triangle ADC

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh yea your right...oops I was looking at wrong

OpenStudy (juicstice):

it's fine. I'm going to draw it out just because it will be easier for me

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok....

OpenStudy (juicstice):

|dw:1401913626841:dw| This is what we have so far

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok so that top and bottom angle are alt. interior angles you said....and line CD they share so reflexive....right?

OpenStudy (juicstice):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok lemme write that in my notebook...I need like 30 seconds

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok I'm done @Juicstice

OpenStudy (juicstice):

this part is kinda confusing for me. what do you think you see?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok well it either has to b AA~ SAS~ or SSS~.... so since we have one congruent angle and one congruen side....I'm guessing it's gunna b SAS~ sooooo....still trying to find that last side

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ok wait...we did something wrong...I think we r comparing the wrong triangles....hang on I'll draw it

OpenStudy (juicstice):

This one is a bit more complicated then I thought. Yea I was just about to say like I think we messed up with CD
