Question

What geometric postulates justifies the statement below

If AB is congruent to CD and CD is congruent to EF, then AB
iscongruent to EF.

Answer 1

Answer: Transitive property of congruence.

Explanation:

Transitive property of congruence is similar to transitive property of equality , it says that if a is congruent to b and b is congruent to c , then a is congruent to c.

Given statement : If AB is congruent to CD and CD is congruent to EF, then AB is congruent to EF.

Here a= AB , b= CD and c= EF

Therefore, the geometric postulates justifies given the statement must be Transitive property of congruence.
