Answer 1

Option (3)

Explanation:

To prove ΔMTD ≅ ΔLGS,

Statements Reasons

1). Segment TM ≅ GL 1). Given

2). Segment MD ≅ LS 2). Given

3). Segment TD ≅ GS 3). Additional information required

4). ΔMTD ≅ ΔLGS 4). SSS property

For SSS property corresponding sides of the given triangles must be congruent.

Therefore, additional information required is segment GS ≅ TD

Option (3). will be the answer.
