Answer: OPTION C.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. To solve this problem you must apply the Pythagorean Theorem, which is shown below:

a^{2}=b^{2}+c^{2}

Where a is the hypotenuse, and b and c are the legs of the triangle.

2. When you solve for one of the legs and substitute values, you obtain that the result is:

b=\sqrt{a^{2}-c^{2}}\\b=\sqrt{(24.8ft)^{2}-(8ft)^{2}}\\b=23.5ft

<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answer is:  C. 23.5 ft.

<h2>Why?</h2>

Since it's a right triangle, we can use the pythagoras theorem:

a^{2} + b^{2} = c^{2}

Where:

c=Hypotenuse\\a=side\\b=side

According to the image:

c=24.8ft\\a=8ft\\b=?

So, by substituting we have:

8^{2} + b^{2} = 24.8^{2}\\b^{2} =615.04-64\\b=\sqrt{551.04} \\b=23.47

So, the other side is equal to 23.47≅23.5 ft.

Have a nice day!

 ∠O  ≅  ∠U is third statement which is congruent .

What is congruent triangle?

  • Two figures are said to be "congruent" if they can be placed perfectly over one another. Both of the bread slices are the same size and shape when stacked one on top of the other.
  • Congruent refers to having precisely the same form and size.
  • If all three sides of two triangles are the same, they are said to be congruent.
  • If we have a side, an angle between the sides, and then a second side that is congruent, we know they are congruent. In other words, side, angle, side.

ΔONP and ΔUTV are congruent .

By using ASA Theorem ,

                 NP ≅ TV

                ∠P  ≅  ∠V

                ∠O  ≅  ∠U
