Options

A. UV = 14 ft and m∠TUV = 45°

B. TU = 26 ft

C. m∠STU = 37° and m∠VTU = 37°

D. ST = 20 ft, UV = 14 ft, and m∠UST = 98°

E. m∠UST = 98° and m ∠TUV = 45°

Answer:

A. UV = 14 ft and m∠TUV = 45°

D. ST = 20 ft, UV = 14 ft, and m∠UST = 98°

Explanation:

Given

See attachment for triangle

Required

What proves that: ΔSTU ≅ ΔVTU using SAS

To prove their similarity, we must check the corresponding sides and angles of both triangles

First:


\angle UST must equal
\angle UVT

So:


\angle UST = \angle UVT = 98

Next:

UV must equal US.

So:


UV = US = 14

Also:

ST must equal VT

So:


ST = VT = 20

Lastly


\angle TUV must equal
\angle TUS

So:


\angle TUV = \angle TUS = 45

Hence: Options A and D are correct
