A) UVW~UWT~WVT
B) UVW~WUT~WVT
C) WUT~VUW~WVT
D) TWV~WUV~UWT

Also Please explain why it's that, I'm really bad at math and I just would like an explanation on how to find it. Not the direct answer. Thank you

Answer 1

We can't access the png you would need to download the picture and use the attach file button.

Answer 2

So if we don't have any idea what the triangles look like we have no idea what the answer could be.

Answer 3

Okay I'm sorry! I didn't know.

Answer 4

No worries. Also have you already answered the question?

Answer 5

Yeah I think it's C but I'm not quite sure.

Answer 6

Ok I think I managed to figure it out.

Answer 7

Okay was I right on it being C?

Answer 8

You were indeed correct but let me explain why. This question is effectively asking you the points for all three triangles.

Answer 9

So in other words ABC ~ ABD ~ BCD would be an awnser as they can all form different triangles

Answer 10

but ABC and BCA would be the same triangle.

Answer 11

the points are just in a differnt order. So what you would have to do is find the three triangles in the picture (so the small triangle on the right the bigger one on the left and the massive one if there wasn't a line in the whole thing) and assign the points for them.

Answer 12

So each option has to have unique points and cannot be the same points in a different order or points that would not form a triangle with the picture shown. I.e. TVU

Answer 13

Ohh okay that makes more sense now. Thank you so much!

Answer 14

Any time. So long as I'm online.
