Answer:

1. D

2. B

3. A

4. C

Explanation:

1. The third side can't be calculated with given information

2. This is right triangle so you can use Pythagorean theorem to find hypotenuse.

6^2 + 8^2 = c^2

36 + 64 = c^2

100 = c^2

10 = c = PR

Since PM = RM, you would take half of c to find PM. So PM = 5

3. When writing congruency statement, you have to be careful with orders.

Angle A is congruent to angle E.

Angle B is congruent to angle D

So if A comes first, then E should be written first for the other side (does that make sense?)

4. For SAS, you need 2 congruent sides and 1 congruent angle. But that angle has to be in between two congruent sides.
