can anyone help with some geometry??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I will give medals

jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):

what is your question please ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):

sorry from following not can i seeing nothing

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You cannot see the image?

jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):

just the below part where have wrote these following so from these i not see nothing

jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):

this is a right triangle with altitude from angle right on hypothenuse

jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):

can you posting it more clearly please ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Here is the question and anwser choices: Which of the following is a justification used while proving the similarity of triangles ΔRUS and ΔSUT? Transitive Property of Equality Addition Property of Equality Definition of Supplementary Angles Definition of Congruence

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Here is the triangle they are asking about

jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):

so i see it your opinion that the second is right - yes ? can you tel me why you think it so ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Im honestly not sure why, i was taking a guess.

jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):

so what you know about these triangles what you need proving that are similar ?

jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):

come please step by step - ok. ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2 angles of the triangle are equal to 2 corresponding angles of the other triangle

jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):

so what you know - what i have wrote above that this is a right triangle with altitude on hypothenuse from right angle - yes ?

jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):

so can you tel me what angles are congruents ?

jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):

sorry because i dont see the top part what has wrote there exactly ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

R and T?

jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):

side length ST is equal side length SR ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):

please cooperate

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i said yes

jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):

what you know it sure that the side SU is common side and angle U_1 congruent U_2 = right angles - yes ? - so you need again two congruent angles or two congruent sides and than will get what similarity theorem - do you know it ?

jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):

sorry i dont saw it your answer - so this mean that is a right and isosceles triangle - yes ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

correct

jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):

so in this case than you think that in place of side SU there is a window how you think triangle SUT not will be a reflected triangle of SUR ?
