Question

What is the value of z if triangle FEG is congruent to triangk
SRT?

Answer 1

z = 6

Explanation:

given that the triangles are congruent, then corresponding sides are congruent

FG and ST are corresponding sides, that is

FG = ST ( substitute values )

3z - 8 = z + 4 ( subtract z from both sides )

2z - 8 = 4 ( add 8 to both sides )

2z = 12 ( divide both sides by 2 )

z = 6
