The Segment-Addition Postulate can be generalized as follows: The length of a line segment equals the sum of the length of its parts. State a general conclusion regarding AE based on the following figure.
a. Suppose that you wish to prove that RSTSRV. Using the reason Identity, name one pair of corresponding parts that are congruent. b. Suppose you wish to prove that RWTSWV. Considering the figure, name one pair of corresponding angles of these triangles that must be congruent.
HA hypotenuse-angle is also a valid method for proving that two right triangles are congruent a Given that AD and ABDE in the right triangles shown, can HA be used to verify that ABCDEF? b Name another method SSS, SAS. etc. that can be used to verify that these triangles are congruent.
Which part hypothesis or conclusion of a theorem determines the a Drawing? b Given? c Prove?
In a right triangle, the sides that form the right angle are the legs; the longest side opposite the right angle is the hypotenuse. Some textbooks say that when two right triangles have congruent pairs of legs, the right triangles are congruent by the reason LL. In our work, LL is just a special case of one of the postulates in this section. Which postulate is that?
In Exercises 25 and 26, give a paragraph form of proof. Provide drawings as needed. Given: Isosceles MNQ with QM=QN=s and MN=2a Prove: AMNQ=as2-a2 NOTE: sa.
