Answer 1

Statement 3:

`TV\cong XW`

Reason: Law of cosines

Statement 4:

`VY\cong WY`

Reason: Law of cosines

Proof

We have the following situation:

Because the law of cosines,

`\begin{gathered} a^2=c^2+d^2-2cd\cos (b) \\ a^2=e^2+f^2-2ef\cos (b) \end{gathered}`

Therefore,

`c^2+d^2-2cd\cos (b)=e^2+f^2-2ef\cos (b)`
