In ΔABC shown below, ∠BAC is congruent to ∠BCA: Given: Base ∠BAC and ∠ACB are congruent. Prove: ΔABC is an isosceles triangle. When completed (fill in the blanks), the following paragraph proves that Line segment AB is congruent to Line segment BC making ΔABC an isosceles triangle.
Construct a perpendicular bisector from point B to Line segment AC. Label the point of intersection between this perpendicular bisector and Line segment AC as point D: m∠BDA and m∠BDC is 90° by the definition of a perpendicular bisector. ∠BDA is congruent to ∠BDC by the definition of congruent angles. Line segment AD is congruent to Line segment DC by _______1________. ΔBAD is congruent to ΔBCD by the _______2________. Line segment AB is congruent to Line segment BC because corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent (CPCTC). Consequently, ΔABC is isosceles by definition of an isosceles triangle.
Angle-Side-Angle (ASA) Postulate corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent (CPCTC) corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent (CPCTC) Angle-Side-Angle (ASA) Postulate the definition of a perpendicular bisector Angle-Side-Angle (ASA) Postulate corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent (CPCTC) the definition of a perpendicular bisector
please help??
@jhonyy9 plese help?
when is a triangle isoscele ?
when the two sides are equal
given <BAC congruent <ACB - yes ? so from this what result ?
would it be the second one?
so when 2 angles are congruent so from this result that the corresponding sides to these angles are congruent too - ok. ? so than you check these angles from the base <BAC and <ACB are congruent by ,,GIVEN" from the start - so from this result that the coresponding sides to thses angles are congruent too - what are these sides ?
side BA and side BC - yes ?
coresponding angle A is side BC and coresponding angle C is BA - yes ?
so than BC congruent BA this mean that the triangle ABC is isoscele sure
ohh its the last one. @jhonyy9
are you sure ?
not really. @jhonyy9 sorry
but it uses asa
postulate
yes is right but you need to be sure when you are right - ok. ?
do u think its right? @jhonyy9
yes by ASA is sure correct
ohh okayy thank youuu
was my pleasure bye bye
