Answer:

A) AAS; B) LA; C) ASA

Step-by-step explanation:

AAS is the Angle-Angle-Side congruence statement.  It says that if two angles and a non-included side of one triangle are congruent to the corresponding two angles and non-included side of a second triangle, then the triangles are congruent.  In these triangles, ∠E≅∠K, ∠F≅∠L, and DE≅JK.  These are two angles and a non-included side; this is AAS.

LA is the leg-acute theorem.  It states that if a leg and acute angle of one triangle is congruent to the corresponding leg and acute angle of another triangle, then the triangles are congruent.

The leg we have congruent from each triangle is DE and JK.  We also have ∠E≅∠K and ∠F≅∠L, both pairs of which are acute.  This is the LA theorem.

ASA is the Angle-Side-Angle congruence statement.  It says that if two angles and an included side of one triangle are congruent to the corresponding two angles and included side of another triangle, then the triangles are congruent.  

We have that ∠D≅∠J, DE≅JK and ∠E≅∠K.  This gives us two angles and an included side, or ASA.

Answer: AAS

LA

ASA

Step-by-step explanation:

In the given picture, we have two right triangles in which one side and one angle is equal to the corresponding side and one angle of the another right triangle,

So by LA theorem

ΔDEF≅ΔJKL

Also, two angles of ΔDEF is equal to the corresponding two angles of ΔJKL and one non included side, So by AAS theorem they are congruent.

If we consider right angle also, then two angles of ΔDEF is equal to the corresponding two angles of ΔJKL and one included side, So by ASA postulate they are congruent.

In ΔDEF and ΔJKL no two sides are given congruent thus we cannot apply SAS or LL or HL (hypotenuse are not given to be equal).

Jane buys some rocks for decorating her backyard. She uses a box full of rocks. The box is a rectangular container that is 1 yar
statuscvo [17]
First, Jane must know the volume of the box.
Volume = l * w * h
Volume = 1 * 0.5 * 0.5
Volume = 0.25 yard^3

1 yard^3 = $25

So,
1 : 25 = 0.25 : x
x = 25 * 0.25
x = $6.25

So she need to spend $6.25

The pyrotechnic team for Fist Bump’s tour want to know how high the arena is to 2 decimal places. The arena is 61.3786 metres hi
Aloiza [94]
When you find any value to x amount of decimal places, you need to go to the term AFTER that to determine the correct value.  So, for this, take 61.378 metres.  From here, look if the last number is 4 or less.  If the number is 4 or less, take the leftmost number off, and you will have your answer (if we had 61.373, the correct answer would be 61.37).  If the number is 5 or more, take the leftmost number off, and add 1 to the new leftmost number.  Since the last number is 8, the correct answer here is 61.38 metres high.  If adding 1 makes the number 10, keep the 0 at the end.  So, if you had 61.399, you would make it 61.40

May someone help, please ? Thank you ♥️
koban [17]
My final answer is (C) because for the side lenghts to be a right triangle, the values of the first and second terms should be equal to the third (a^2 and b^2 =c^2) hope that helped (:
