Answer:
BN = 9cm
TW = 14cm
BF = 17cm
m∠W = 82°
m∠B = 67°
m∠F= 31°
Explanation:
Given:
∆STW ≅ ∆BFN
To find :
Measure of corresponding angles and sides
Solution:
We know that congruent triangles have corresponding angles and sides that are equal. Therefore, we can write the following equations:
BN = SW
TW = FN
BF = ST
m∠W = m∠N
m∠S = m∠B
m∠F = m∠T
We are also given that ∆STW ≅∆BFN. Therefore, we can substitute the following values into the equations above:
BN = SW = 9cm
TW = FN = 14cm
BF = ST = 17cm
m∠W = m∠N = 82°
m∠S = m∠B = 67°
Solving for the remaining values, we get:
Since interior angle of a triangle is 180°
m∠F = 180° - (67° + 82°) = 180° - 149° = 31°
Therefore, the corresponding angles and sides of ∆STW and ∆BFN are as follows:
- BN = SW = 9cm
- TW = FN = 14cm
- BF = ST = 17cm
- m∠W = m∠N = 82°
- m∠S = m∠B = 67°
- m∠T = m∠F= 31°
