Question

If ABC and GEF are congruent, the value of x is and the value of y is

Answer 1

The value of x is 10, and the value of y is 6

Explanation:

ABC and GEF are congruent

so

x - 8 = 2

x = 10

x - y = 4

10 - y = 4

y = 10 - 4

y = 6

Answer

x = 10, y = 6

Answer 2

x = 10 and y = 6

Explanation:

In the given figure ΔABC and ΔGEF are congruent which means all the corresponding sides of the given triangles should be congruent.

So measure of AC = mfg

x - 8 = 2

x = 2 + 8

x = 10

Similarly mBC = mEF

x - y = 4

10 - y = 4

y = 10 - 4 = 6

Therefore, answer are x = 10 and y = 6
