Question

Two triangles are shown to be congruent by identifying a combination of translations, rotations, or reflections that move one figure onto the other. If ΔBAT ≅ ΔMAN, which line segment must be congruent to TB? Why?

Answer 1

D)NM

Explanation:

NM because corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent.

The definition of congruent triangles says the corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent (CPCTC). Since ΔBAT ≅ ΔMAN, TB corresponds to NM.

Answer 2

NM because corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent.

The definition of congruent triangles says the corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent (CPCTC). Since ΔBAT ≅ ΔMAN, TB corresponds to NM.
