Which step could help him determine if ΔNMO ≅ΔPQR by SAS?
A) segment MO ≅ segment QR
B) segment ON ≅ segment QP
C) ∠N ≅ ∠R
D) ∠O ≅ ∠Q

Answer 1

@Alphabet_Sam would you be able to help me?

Answer 2

For SAS to be true, you need two sides on either side of the angle to be congruent. You already know that NM is congruent to PQ and that M is congruent to Q. The last piece is the other side on the two triangles to be congruent. Does that help?

Answer 3

would it be A?

Answer 4

Exactly! Nice job.
