Answer:

As per ASA postulate, the two triangles are congruent.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given two triangles:

\triangle ABC and \triangle DEC.

AD bisects BE.

AB || DE.

Let us have a look at two properties.

1. When two lines are parallel and a line intersects both of them, then <em>alternate angles </em>are equal.

i.e. AB || ED and \angle B and \angle E are alternate angles \Rightarrow \angle B = \angle E.

2. When two lines are cutting each other, angles formed at the crossing of two, are known as <em>Vertically opposite angles </em>and they are are <em>equal</em>.

\Rightarrow \angle ACB = \angle DCE

Also, it is given that <em>AD bisects BE</em>.

i.e. EC = CB

1. \angle B = \angle E

2. EC = CB

3. \angle ACB = \angle DCE

So, we can in see that in \triangle ABC and \triangle DEC, two angles are equal and side between them is also equal to each other.

Hence, proved that \triangle ABC \cong \triangle DEC.

kogti [31]
1.       <span>The name of period that has 486 in the given number which is 751 486  is hundreds.
period is considered to a group of places of the digits, like the given number 486 is the group of hundred because the highest number it contains is 400.
=> 400 + 80 + 6
=> 4 hundreds + 8 tens + 6 ones
=> 486
while 751 is the period of hundred thousands.
=> 700 000 + 50 000 + 1 000
=> 751 000
