Question

Based on the given information, choose the abbreviation of the postulate that supports the conclusion that ΔWAS ΔNOT.

If the conclusion cannot be drawn from the given information, then choose "not possible."



Given:
WS = NT, AS = OT, S = T.

SSS
SAS
ASA
not possible

Answer 1

SAS is the answer I believe hope I helped you in a way:D!!!!!!!! ~Marcey<3

Answer 2

(B) SAS rule

Explanation:

Given: It is given that in ΔWAS and ΔNOT, WS=NT, AS=OT and ∠S=∠T.

To find: The postulate that states ΔWAS≅ΔNOT.

Solution: It is given that in ΔWAS and ΔNOT, WS=NT, AS=OT and ∠S=∠T, thus

From ΔWAS and ΔNOT, we have

WS=NT(Given)

∠S=∠T(Given)

AS=OT (given)

Thus, by SAS rule of congruency, ΔWAS is congruent to ΔNOT that is ΔWAS≅ΔNOT.

Hence, option (B) is correct.
