Geometry help
This is what I got so far. I feel like the B prime is unnecessary? Not sure.
nuh uh work it out urself,jkjk

Finally something i'm awesome sauce at. You’re trying to show that there’s an isosceles triangle with sides 2 , 2 , 2,2, and 3 3 using only the concepts of "betweenness" and "congruence." The point 𝐵 ′ you included MIGHT not actually be needed. Right now, 𝐵 looks like it’s just there to help measure 𝐶 𝐵 = 3 CB=3. But you don’t actually need an extra point to do that, betweenness and congruence rules are enough to handle it. You can just work with points 𝐴 A, 𝐵 B, and 𝐶 C directly. So, you’re correct that 𝐵 ′ B ′ seems unnecessary. You can simplify your diagram and explanation by removing it and directly focusing on 𝐴 A, 𝐵 B, and 𝐶 C. This makes your solution cleaner and easier to understand. Okay, so we’re tryna define the one and only isosceles triangle with sides 2 , 2 , 2,2, and 3 3 using just "betweenness" and "congruence" because apparently, that’s all we get to work with (lmao). We’ve got three points: 𝐴 , 𝐵 , and 𝐶 . First off, 𝐴 𝐶 = 𝐴 𝐵 AC=AB 'cause, isosceles. Then, 𝐶 ∗ 𝐴 ∗ 𝐵 C∗A∗B makes sure A is right there in between 𝐶 and 𝐵 , so we actually get a triangle. Oh, and we gotta show that 𝐶 𝐵 = 3 CB=3 by making it clear 𝐴 𝐵 and 𝐴 𝐶 aren’t the same as 𝐶 𝐵 CB. Boom—triangle done. (I hope this is clear👮♂️)
I'm learning this rn too bud and I missed the lesson so I'm stuck on this too
I don't think I've don't this math yet but from what I can see, it looks right; the only thing I don't get is the c*a*b
