Help no time plzzzz plz plz​
Sav [38]

Answer:

FALSE

Step-by-step explanation:

<E in ∆AED ≅ <E in ∆CEB.

Both are 90°.

Side ED ≅ Side EB

Side AD ≅ Side CB.

Thus, two sides (ED and AD) and a non-included angle (<E) of ∆AED are congruent to corresponding two sides (EB and CB) and a non-included angle (<E) of ∆CEB. Therefore, by A-S-S Congruence Theorem, both triangles are congruent to each other not by SSS.
