You can find the segment congruent to AC by finding another segment with the same length. So first, you need to find the length of AC.

C - A = AC
0 - (-6) = AC Cancel out the double negative
0 + 6 = AC
6 = AC

Now, find another segment that also has a length of 6.

D - B = BD
2 - (-2) = BD Cancel out the double negative
2 + 2 = BD
4 = BD
4 ≠ 6

E - B = BE
4 - (-2) = BE Cancel out the double negative
4 + 2 = BE
6 = BE
6 = 6

So, the segment congruent to AC is B. BE .

Triangle ABC has side lengths a= 24, b= 40, and c= 55. What is the measure of angle C? 83.6° 116.2° 23.0° 40.7°

Harlamova29_29 [7]

<h3>Answer: 116.2°</h3>

Work Shown:

$c^2 = a^2 + b^2 - 2ab\cos(C)\\\\55^2 = 24^2 + 40^2 - 2*24*40\cos(C)\\\\3025 = 576 + 1600 - 1920\cos(C)\\\\3025 = 2176 - 1920\cos(C)\\\\3025 - 2176 = -1920\cos(C)\\\\849 = -1920\cos(C)\\\\-1920\cos(C) = 849\\\\\cos(C) = (849)/(-1920)\\\\\cos(C) \approx -0.4421875\\\\C \approx \cos^{-1}(-0.4421875)\\\\C \approx 116.243535748231^{\circ}\\\\C \approx 116.2^{\circ}\\\\$

The first equation is one of the three variations for the Law of Cosines.

Triangles J K L and X Y Z are shown. Angles K J L and Y X Z are right angles. The length of Y X is 10. The length of hypotenuse

pickupchik [31]

ΔJKL and ΔXYZ CANNOT be congruent triangles because: the hypotenuse of one triangle is equal in length to the leg of the other triangle.

<h3>What are Congruent Triangles?</h3>

Congruent triangles are triangles whose corresponding sides are congruent to each other.

The hypotenuse of triangle JKL(KL = 10) is congruent to a leg of triangle XYZ (YX = 10). This implies that they cannot be congruent triangles.

Therefore, ΔJKL and ΔXYZ CANNOT be congruent triangles because: the hypotenuse of one triangle is equal in length to the leg of the other triangle.
