OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

I think we need a figure.

@mathstudent55

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

Ok, I see it.

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

Let's copy the figure and mark the congruent parts.

OpenStudy (ironpatriot):

ok

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

C, F are rt. 's |dw:1448407751722:dw|

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

AC = DF; B =E |dw:1448407780058:dw|

OpenStudy (ironpatriot):

I got tht and ok

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

Since angles C and F are right angles, we know we have two right triangles.

OpenStudy (ironpatriot):

angle c and angle f are congruent

OpenStudy (ironpatriot):

well right angles sry

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

Yes, they are, but we don't need that. We just need to know they are right angles bec that makes the triangles right triangles where we can use HL, LL, HA, etc.
