Question

what method can be used to prove the triangles below are congruent? a. sas b. aas c. asa d. not possible answer:

Explanation:

• Vertical Angles: The two triangles have a pair of vertical angles which are equal.
• Marked Equal Sides: There is a pair of marked equal sides.
• Marked Equal Angles: There is a pair of marked equal angles.
• ASA Criterion: The Angle - Side - Angle (ASA) congruence criterion states that 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. Here, the vertical angles, the marked equal side (included side between the vertical angle and the marked angle), and the marked equal angles satisfy the ASA criterion.

Answer:

C. ASA
