Question

If angle A is congruent to itself by the Reflexive Property, which transformation could be used to prove ΔABC ~ ΔADE by AA similarity postulate? triangles ABC and ADE, in which point B is between points A and D and point C is between points A and E

A. Translate triangle ABC so that point B lies on point E to confirm ∠B ≅ ∠E.
B. Translate triangle ABC so that point C lies on point E to confirm ∠C ≅ ∠E.
C. Dilate ΔABC from point A by the ratio segment AD over segment AB to confirm segment AD ~ segment AB.
D. Dilate ΔABC from point A by the ratio segment AE over segment AC to confirm segment AE ~ segment AC.

Answer 1

A is the correct answer.

Explanation:

This is because the congruent is 90 degrees. If this triangle is transformed to the other side, point b would lie on the point of e.
