Tonya has the scissors shown. Choose the correct answer below. 6 cm O A. The conclusion from the Hinge Theorem is the opposite. Because the angle between the blades of the left pair of scissors is larger, the distance between the blade tips of the right pair of scissors is larger. + 5 cm She writes the following description of how she will use the Hinge Theorem with the scissors. What is the mistake in her use of the Hinge Theorem? O B. Tonya used the Hinge Theorem, but she should have used the Converse of the Hinge Theorem. The Converse of the Hinge Theorem would allow Tonya to reach a conclusion about the distance between the If you open the right pair of scissors to an angle of 30 and open the left pair of scissors to an angle of 45°, then by the Hinge Theorem, the distance between the blade tips of the left pair of scissors will be larger. blade tips of the pairs of scissors. O C. The Hinge Theorem cannot be used here. The triangles represented by the scissor blades do not have two congruent sides. O D. The Hinge Theorem does not apply to triangles with angles smaller than 60°.
