I NEED HELP ASAP!

OpenStudy (agl202):

With?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Im having trouble understanding this

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok so look at the order of the triangles angles,

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the angle w is the first in triangle wxv

OpenStudy (agl202):

W is the same side as R. They are congruent.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

btw- @Agl202 She could have odne it her self you didn't need to give her her answer

OpenStudy (agl202):

K, Sorry abt that!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but what i dont understand what w is

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I think it is asking me the degree of angle w

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is it 90

OpenStudy (anonymous):

w is one of the angles, when it said "m=angle w" it was saying m=measure of angle

OpenStudy (agl202):

Do u know what congruent means? @iluwintermitzi

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (agl202):

So whats congruent to W?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

R right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh! and also, you can find the congruent angles by flipping the second triangle to match the first triangle and find the congruent angles that way too :D

OpenStudy (agl202):

Yes, Both triangles are congruent. Right? So The measurement of R will be the same for W.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so its 90 right? :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

angle w does not have a measure while angle r does have a measure, and they are both congruent (the same measure) so what ever angle r is is the measure of angle w! :)

OpenStudy (agl202):

Yep, There u go! @iluwintermitzi

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Also, the box between the two legs or the angle means it is a 90 degree angle so , yes! you are correct :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh ok thankyou for helping me!

OpenStudy (agl202):

No problem! Glad I could be help! =)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Me too! :D
