Question

Explain what other information is needed to prove these triangles congruent using the given reasons. (1 pt. each) a) SSS b) SAS c) AAS d) ASA e) HL

Answer 1

Solution

For this case we can see that :

AB = DE

We also know that :

m < ABC = m < EDF

For this case we have:

a) SSS

We need to have the hypothenuse congruent or the other side congruent in both triangles

b) SAS

We just need to have BC= DF

c) AAS

We need to satisfy:

m< BCA = m< DFE

d) ASA

We need to satisfy:

me) HL

We need to satisfy:

AC = EF
