Question

select the shortcut which can be used to prove this pair of triangles congruent. if no method applies, choose
one.\)

Explanation:

Step1: Identify the given information

We have two triangles with one pair of sides equal (marked with the same tick), and one pair of vertical angles (which are equal). But we need more information.

Step2: Check congruence criteria

The congruence criteria are SSS (side - side - side), SAS (side - angle - side), ASA (angle - side - angle), AAS (angle - angle - side) and HL (hypotenuse - leg for right - angled triangles). Here, we have only one side and one angle (vertical angles) given. We don't have enough information to apply any of the congruence criteria.

Answer:

none
