Question

3. Given that AMTWACAD, which segments are corresponding parts of the congruent triangles?

MW=AD
TW=CD
MT = CA

Answer 1

(c) MT = CA

Explanation:

You want to know the corresponding parts of the congruent triangles ...

∆MTW ≅ ∆CAD

Corresponding parts

Corresponding vertices are listed in the same order in the congruence statement. This means the corresponding vertices are ...

M ⇔ C

T ⇔ A

W ⇔ D

Application

Corresponding line segments will have corresponding vertices at each end.

MW ⇒ CD — not AD

TW ⇒ AD — not CD

MT ⇒ CA . . . . . as listed
