Question

question 6 of 10
the triangles shown below may not be congruent.

a. true
b. false

Explanation:

Step1: Recall the ASA (Angle - Side - Angle) congruence criterion

If two angles and the included side of one triangle are equal to two angles and the included side of another triangle, then the two triangles are congruent.
In the first triangle, we have angles \(80^{\circ}\), \(30^{\circ}\) and side \(15\). In the second triangle, we have angles \(30^{\circ}\), \(80^{\circ}\) and side \(15\). The side of length \(15\) is the included side between the angles \(80^{\circ}\) and \(30^{\circ}\) in both triangles.

Answer:

B. False
