Question

Quick Geometry questions! I'll fan and medal!

Answer 1

What are the questions :)

Answer 2

@MariaSophiaRT here's the first one:
Indicate the method you would use to prove the two triangles congruent. If no method applies, enter "none".
SSS
SAS
ASA
AAS
None

Answer 3

Indicate the method you would use to prove the two triangles congruent. If no method applies, enter "none".
HL
LA
LL
HA
None

Answer 4

@smd_kma ???

Answer 5

@Natasha18 I would use AAS again for the next set of triangles

A: the two right angles are equal to 90 degrees, so they are congruent to each other
A: the two 45 degree angles are equal to each other
S: the two hypotenuses are equal

Answer 6

btw I'm not sure if HA refers to hypotenuse angle or hypotenuse altitude

Answer 7

@jim_thompson5910 I think its angle... so it'd be HA right?

Answer 8

if HA is hypotenuse angle, then yes

H: the two hypotenuses are equal
A: the 45 degree angles are equal

HA = hypotenuse angle only works for right triangles

Answer 9

@jim_thompson5910 ok thanks!

Answer 10

Oh and I just wanna check this

This one would be SSS right?

Answer 11

and this one would be AAS..??

Answer 12

AAS would correct since vertical angles are congruent ^^

Answer 13

Right?

Answer 14

Well actually it would be formatted as ASA since we have the angle first and the we determine the side and then we determine the vertical angles...

would be ASA

AAS is very similar but notice how the S is in a different spot. So there is subtle variation going on here

Answer 16

@563blackghost ok thanks! do you know about the first one?

Answer 17

The kite-looking one I wouldn't think it is SSS we are only aware two sides that are in fact congruent....Since we know that these two sides are congruent to each other that would only mean that the angle in between are also congruent so I would believe that it would found by the SAS Postulate...

Answer 18

@jim_thompson5910 @563blackghost okay yeah I see get what both of you are saying

Answer 19

THANK YOU SO MUCH you guys explain things waaay better than my textbook XD

Answer 20

np :)
