Question

In the accompanying diagram of triangle AEC and triangle PXT, angle A congruent angle P and angle C is congruent to angle T. Which side of triangle PXT corresponds to side, CE? A. TX, B. TP or C. PX

Answer 1

the answer to this is tx because the of the corresponding sides

Answer 2

Option A.

Explanation:

In triangle AEC and triangle PXT,

`\angle A=\angle P` (Given)

`\angle C=\angle T` (Given)

Two corresponding angles are congruent, it means

`\triangle AEC\sim \triangle PXT`

So, we can say that

AE corresponds to side PX.

EC corresponds to side XT.

AC corresponds to side PT.

We need to find the side of triangle PXT which is corresponds to side, CE.

CE corresponds to side TX.

Therefore, the correct option is A.
