6. Proving Triangle Congruence by ASA and AAS

Finish the assignment

Continue to next subchapter

Exercise 11 Page 630

Start by drawing two triangles and then add the given information to your diagram.

No, we cannot prove they are congruent.
Explanation: See solution.

Practice makes perfect

Let's draw △ ABC and △ DEF.

Next, we will mark the two pairs of congruent angles, ∠ B≅ ∠ E and ∠ C ≅ ∠ F, and the congruent sides, AC≅ DE, in our diagram.

We see that AC and DE are not corresponding sides and therefore we cannot prove congruence.
