Well, the last step uses SAS, so what is missing? A side angle or side?

I'm not sure lol @anthonyym I don't get Geometry

OpenStudy (anthonyym):

SAS means side-angle-side. It's a way of proving that two triangles are congruent. If two triangles have two congruent sides and the angle between those congruent angles is the same, then the triangles are congruent. Do you understasnd SAS?

OpenStudy (simplymarie_x):

I understand now. Is the answer A?

OpenStudy (anthonyym):

Yes A would be correct.

OpenStudy (anthonyym):

Sorry I mistyped something. It should say "and the angle between those congruent sides"
