Hi ! Think you have no problem in question a so let's directly solve b !

OpenStudy (m.mahdi):

Do you know Pythagorean theorem ?

OpenStudy (brebredoecx):

Yes, I kind of do. @M.Mahdi

OpenStudy (m.mahdi):

Wait a min plz :)

OpenStudy (m.mahdi):

okay. look at the attached file, we have two triangles in your question's shape

OpenStudy (m.mahdi):

according to the Pythagorean theorem in any right triangle \[a^2+b^2=c^2\] see this : http://www.johncmccloskey.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/Pythagorean-Theorem.jpg

OpenStudy (brebredoecx):

Is it trying to prove that bcf is congruent to edc???

OpenStudy (m.mahdi):

not congruent but equal

OpenStudy (m.mahdi):

is there a problem with it ?

OpenStudy (brebredoecx):

Thank you!! I'm confused on the first question though. Could you help?? @M.Mahdi

OpenStudy (m.mahdi):

OpenStudy (m.mahdi):

OpenStudy (brebredoecx):

@M.Mahdi Could you help me with some other questions? It's the same thing but just other questions :)
