HanAkoSolo (jamierox4ev3r):

so we're given a hypotenuse

HanAkoSolo (jamierox4ev3r):

so that strikes me right away. And we have a right angle.

HanAkoSolo (jamierox4ev3r):

so @ILovePuppiesLol what do you think it is? @Blondie_B23 please don't provide direct answers without offering some type of explanation first. Thank you :)

ILovePuppiesLol (ilovepuppieslol):

it can't be SAS twice in a row

HanAkoSolo (jamierox4ev3r):

*cough* recall the H-L rule

ILovePuppiesLol (ilovepuppieslol):

im so confused

HanAkoSolo (jamierox4ev3r):

the H-L theorem is the hypotenuse leg theorem. It states that any two triangles that have a congruent hypotenuse and a corresponding, congruent leg are congruent triangles

ILovePuppiesLol (ilovepuppieslol):

yeah, clearly true

ILovePuppiesLol (ilovepuppieslol):

thats what i picked

HanAkoSolo (jamierox4ev3r):

yep. nice job

ILovePuppiesLol (ilovepuppieslol):

last one

HanAkoSolo (jamierox4ev3r):

well the proofs directly tell us that there are two equal angles and one side

ILovePuppiesLol (ilovepuppieslol):

A

HanAkoSolo (jamierox4ev3r):

See Statement's 3, 4, and 5

HanAkoSolo (jamierox4ev3r):

Does that make sense? and yup!

ILovePuppiesLol (ilovepuppieslol):

the first one was AAS instead of H~L and their was AAS instead of ASA, i got a 60 :(

ILovePuppiesLol (ilovepuppieslol):

the very first one i asked, in the first post, and the one on this post

HanAkoSolo (jamierox4ev3r):

oh dang. That's probably because the hypotenuse wasn't actually marked as being equivalent. Remember how we were debating whether it would be H-L or AAS

ILovePuppiesLol (ilovepuppieslol):

:(

HanAkoSolo (jamierox4ev3r):

Wait, what was the other one that was wrong? the very last problem on this post?

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

The first problem in this post is definitely HL. The second problem is AAS.

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

@Jamierox4ev3r got them both correct.

HanAkoSolo (jamierox4ev3r):

@mathstudent55 those were the answers that we came up with as well. So it's a little hard to see what when wrong
