can someoe plz help will fan and medal!!!!!!
need help asap!! some one plzz im not trying to chear
Here are intersecting lines m and n. |dw:1417399838638:dw|
I think they are called vertical angles right? Angles opposite each other?
What is the name given to angles such as 1 and 2 in the figure below? |dw:1417399885631:dw|
@ArkGoLucky already answered. They are called vertical angles. There is a theorem that states that vertical angles are congruent.
the vertical angle psotulate
It's a theorem that can be proved.
This is what you need for part a.
Once you know those angles are congruent from part a., now you can answer part b.
yes i know i kinda have that part done but im talking about part b
You are proving two triangles congruent. Which parts of one triangle are known to be congruent to parts of the other triangle?
wait so part a is this angles jkn and angles lkm are congruent because vertical angles are congruent??
Yes, you are correct for part a. Now I'm showing you part b below. |dw:1417400123868:dw|
Above, you see one side of one triangle and the corresponding side of the other triangle. These sides are congruent. A side is S.
ok
Then you have from part a., an angle of one triangle and an angle of the other triangle. The angles are congruent. An angle is A. |dw:1417400260459:dw|
Finally, you have another side of one triangle congruent to a corresponding side of the other triangle. A side again is S. |dw:1417400326099:dw|
