Question

Let’s say that in these congruent triangles, the length of side AB in the first triangle is 6 feet. What is the length of side DE in the second triangle?

Answer 1

6

Explanation:

Answer 2

6 feet

Explanation:

Corresponding vertices of the congruent triangles are listed in the same order in the congruence statement. Given that ΔABC ≅ ΔDEF, that means vertices A and B correspond to vertices D and E.

Segment DE will have the same length as segment AB, 6 feet.
