Question

Look at the figure below:

Triangle NPM has the measure of angle NPM equal to 50 degrees. T is a point on side PM. Points N and T are joined by a straight

Make a two-column proof showing statements and reasons to prove that triangle NMT is similar to triangle PMN

Answer 1

Answer:

Angle 50 and common side, in triangle MNT the sum of angles m and t is 130. In triangle PMN the sum of angles n, m is 130

Answer 2

Answer:

Got 100% on the test

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to prove that triangle NMT is similar to triangle PMN  

Statement:    Angle NPT = 50, Angle TNM = 50                                                                                                Reason:         Given

Statement: Angle NPT equals Angle TNM                                                                             Reason: Given

Statement: Angle M is congruent to Angle M                                                               Reason: Reflexive property of congruence

Statement: NM = NM                                                                                                     Reasom: Reflexive property of equality

Statement:Therefore ΔNMT is similar to ΔPMN

Reason: AA Similiraty
