Question

Suppose △NBG≅△WTS. What is the corresponding congruent part for each segment or angle?

NG=
BG=
G=
N=

Answer Choices: WT, TS, WS, W, T, S

Answer 1

NG = WS; BG = TS; G = S; N = W.

Explanation:

We use the congruence statement to answer these questions. From the way the congruence statement is written, we can see that N = W (they are in the same relative position in the congruence statement). We also see that G and S are in the same relative position, so G = S.

Since N = W and G = S, this means that NG = WS.

From the congruence statement we can also see that B = T (they are in the same relative position). Since G = S, this means that BG = TS.

Answer 2

NG ( first and last letter of NBG) = WS ( first and last letter of WTS).

BG = TS

G = S

N =W
