Question

Need help (problem and directions in the image):

Answer 1

Triangle ABC is congruent to triangle CDE using the side - angle - side congruence theorem. The sink hole is 52.2 ft and the Perimeter of ABC is 172.2 ft

What are congruent triangles?

Two triangles are said to be congruent if they have the same shape and their corresponding sides are congruent.

In the image shown:

AC = CE, BC = ED and they have the same angle (opposite angles are congruent).

Hence:

Triangle ABC is congruent to triangle CDE using the side - angle - side congruence theorem.

AB = DE = 52.2 ft

Perimeter of ABC = AB + BC + AC = 50 + 70 + 52.2 = 172.2 ft
