@3mar

OpenStudy (3mar):

Well, I am here. I will not be late for any help, especially you.

OpenStudy (3mar):

Any ideas, brother?

OpenStudy (poto):

Actually no,I'm kind of lost.

OpenStudy (3mar):

You can conclude from the congruence of the two triangles: - corresponding angles are congruent. - corresponding sides are congruent.

OpenStudy (poto):

Okay, yes.

OpenStudy (3mar):

So what will you make use of these two results?

OpenStudy (poto):

Corresponding sides are congruent.

OpenStudy (3mar):

\[\Huge\color{Coral}\checkmark\] then?

OpenStudy (poto):

Will I add the sides given? or create a equation using a variable to find the length of ef

OpenStudy (3mar):

Can you list which sides are congruent, please?

OpenStudy (poto):

QR=EF DE=PQ FD=RP

OpenStudy (3mar):

That is great! For the left triangle, DE=?

OpenStudy (poto):

5ft

OpenStudy (3mar):

You are Awesome! Can you now apply "Pythagorean Theorem" to calculate the remaining side's length?

OpenStudy (poto):

Like this? \[13^2+5^2=x^2\]

OpenStudy (3mar):

I think you mean this: \[\Huge 13^2\color{red}-5^2=x^2\]

OpenStudy (poto):

Yes! That! :)

OpenStudy (3mar):

Correct! Can you solve for x now?

OpenStudy (poto):

Yes!

OpenStudy (3mar):

Very good! Tell me when you got it!

OpenStudy (poto):

144^2?

OpenStudy (poto):

I have two answers 144^2 or 12^2

OpenStudy (3mar):

\[\checkmark\]

OpenStudy (poto):

So would I use the smallest number in this situation?

OpenStudy (3mar):

x=??

OpenStudy (poto):

x=12^2

OpenStudy (3mar):

x=12 and x^2=12^2 got that?

OpenStudy (poto):

Yes :)

OpenStudy (3mar):

So I think you got the answer! don't you?

OpenStudy (poto):

Yes! Indeed! :) Thank you so much brother! I never told you but you can call me Adonijah!

OpenStudy (3mar):

OpenStudy (poto):

You're much welcome as always!

OpenStudy (3mar):

OpenStudy (3mar):

OpenStudy (poto):

Yes! Indeed! Give me a second :)
