Answer: (C) Plate movement

Explanation:

 The plate movement is one of the major cause of the great rift valley as the  geologists realize that rift valley was basically framed by the fierce underground powers that destroyed the world's outside layer.

 These powers made enormous pieces of the outside layer sink between the parallel separation points and power up the liquid shake in volcanic emissions.

 The great Rift Valley is mainly framed by a unique plate limit, where the Amur plate is gradually tearing away and it has been doing as such for around 25 million years.

Therefore, Option (C) is correct.

I would say plate movement caused it partially however flooding may also have helped

Select all statements that are true about the triangles. Triangles A B C ABC and D C B DCB are congruent by the Angle-Angle Tria
fiasKO [112]

Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

Two triangles are said to be equal if all their three sides and all their three angles are exactly equal to each other.

Given triangle ABC and Triangle DCB, we can see that:

∠A = ∠D, |AB| = |CD|, |AC| = |BD| and they share the same side BC. Hence:

a) By the side-side-side (SSS) triangle congruence theorem the two triangles are equal. i.e. |AB| = |CD|, |AC| = |BD| and they share the same side BC.

b) By the side-angle-side (SAS) triangle congruence theorem the two triangles are equal. i.e. |AB| = |CD|, |AC| = |BD| and ∠A = ∠D.
