Use ΔABC below to answer the question that follows:
Triangle ABC with sides BA and BC intersected by line DE.
Which fact is not used to prove that ABC is similar to DBE? (5 points)
Select one:
a. The sum of angles A and B are supplementary to angle C.
b. Segments AC and DE are parallel.
c. AB is a transversal line passing AC and DE.
d. Angle B is congruent to itself due to the reflexive property.

Well Thxs so much

anonymous · Answer

your welcome!

>>But how did you get that?

I would like to know that, too.

What makes this problem somewhat confusing is that line DE is not given to be parallel to line AC.

There is the picture of the problem too. Sorry a little bit to late. I know

directrix · Answer

Are you given above the diagram or wherever that line DE is parallel to line AC?

I thought it might be marked on the diagram but I don't see it.

dolphin1998 · Answer

I don't know. i am not good at geometry. i like the little bit of help I get

dolphin1998 · Answer

I think what you said might be on it too

directrix · Answer

This has to be used so I don't think it is the correct option:

b. Segments AC and DE are parallel.

That leaves three options to check.

dolphin1998 · Answer

okay I will check and see.

dolphin1998 · Answer

Um. I got the answer now. I think I will close this question.

dolphin1998 · Answer

I am not being mean. But I am getting kinda nervous. I have to go.

directrix · Answer

a. The sum of angles A and B are supplementary to angle C.  is what I was thinking.

dolphin1998 · Answer

It is answer A

dolphin1998 · Answer

I cant but this part
