Question

  1. given △bcd ≅ △wxy, which statement does not prove congruence with the sss congruence postulate?

$overline{bw} cong overline{dy}$
$overline{bc} cong overline{wx}$
$overline{qd} cong overline{xy}$
$overline{bd} cong overline{wy}$

Explanation:

Answer:

A. $\overline{BW} \cong \overline{DY}$

(Note: Assuming the first option is A, second B, third C, fourth D. The SSS postulate requires three pairs of corresponding sides. $\overline{BW} \cong \overline{DY}$ is not a corresponding side pair for the triangles $\triangle BCD$ and $\triangle WXY$ (or likely a typo, maybe $\triangle BCD \cong \triangle WXY$), so this would not contribute to SSS congruence. The other options likely represent corresponding sides.)
