Question

100 POINTS!!!!!!! PLZ HELP!!!

In the figure, point B is the midpoint of line AC. Use the figure to answer the questions.


(A) Jeremy says that Δ ABD is congruent to Δ CBD by the SAS congruence postulate. Do you agree or disagree?


(B) Suppose that it is also known that line AD is congruent to line CD. Which postulate or theorem can be used to prove that Δ ABD is congruent to Δ CBD? Justify your Answer

Answer 1

Explanation:

A) Jeremy's statement that ∠ABD ≅ ∠CBD by the SAS congruence postulate; is not true and I will disagree with it because no included angle is given.

B) The postulate that can be used to prove that ∠ABD ≅ ∠CBD if AD = CD is; SSS Congruence postulate.

Answer 2

A) I agree

B)SSS because all three sides would be congruent to the sides from the other triangle
