Question

PLEASE HELP. In the triangles below, DF MN, DG MP, D P. Can you prove that DFG MNP? Explain your answer. (15 points)

Answer 1

Complete question is;

In the triangles attached , DF is congruent to MN,DG is congruent to MP, angle D is congruent to angle P. Can you prove that triangle DFG is congruent to MNP.

Answer:

Proved below

Explanation:

From the attached triangles, we can see that;

∠D corresponds to ∠M

∠F corresponds to ∠N

∠G corresponds to ∠P

But we are told that ∠D is congruent to ∠P. Thus, since we have 2 other congruent sides in the triangles, we can conclude that Side-Angle-Side Postulate (SAS) congruency theorem that triangle DFG is congruent to MNP.
