Use ΔPQR below to answer the question that follows:

Which fact is not used to prove that PQR is similar to STR? (5 points)

Angles RTS and RQP are congruent due to the Corresponding Angles Postulate.
RP is a transversal line passing ST and PQ.
Angle P is congruent to itself due to the reflexive pro

your thoughts?

itrymath · Answer

C

itrymath · Answer

you there ?

jim_thompson5910 · Answer

you have half of that right, there is part of C that is true but another part that isn't quite there. You're close though

itrymath · Answer

I think the 1st part is correct....

itrymath · Answer

to be honest im not sure about 2nd part

jim_thompson5910 · Answer

`I think the 1st part is correct....`
yep correct

itrymath · Answer

well i kinda knew it was correct lol, but im still not sure about 2nd part....how is it wrong... because i dont want to guess

jim_thompson5910 · Answer

well you know the triangles are similar, so what can you determine about the corresponding angles?

itrymath · Answer

OOOOOO A!!!!!

itrymath · Answer

Im super sure its A

jim_thompson5910 · Answer

yep, you know the triangles are similar so the corresponding angles must be congruent

itrymath · Answer

wow yay!!! thanks so much!!
