Exercise 16 Page 467

Identify congruent sides in the triangles.

m∠ RST>m∠ JKL

Let's copy the diagram and mark the angles we are asked to compare.

We can see that two sides of △ RST are congruent to two sides of △ JKL. However, the third side of △ RST is longer than the third side of △ JKL. RS&≅JK ST&≅KL TR&> LJ According to the Converse of the Hinge Theorem, the included angle measure in △ RST is greater than the included angle measure in △ JKL. m∠ RST> m∠ JKL
