D
is certainly wrong. You could extend the length of AD as far as you want and the two triangles (ABD and ACD) would still be congruent.

C
is wrong as well. The triangles might be similar, but they are more. They are congruent.

B
You don't have to prove that. It is given on the way the diagram is marked.

A
A is your answer. The two triangles are congruent by SAS

I need help with this problem

Arada [10]

Answer:

65.56°

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that if we take dot product of two vectors then it is equal to the product of magnitudes of the vectors and cosine of the angle between them

That is let p and q be any two vectors and A be the angle between them

So, p·q=|p|*|q|*cosA

⇒ $cosA=\frac{u.v}{|u||v|}$

Given u=-8i-3j and v=-8i+8j

$|u|=\sqrt{(-8)^{2}+ (-3)^{2}} =8.544$

$|v|=\sqrt{(-8)^{2}+ (8)^{2}} =11.3137$

let A be angle before u and v

therefore, $cosA=\frac{u.v}{|u||v|}=\frac{(-8)*(-8)+(-3)*(8)}{8.544*11.3137} =\frac{40}{96.664}$

⇒ $A=arccos(\frac{40}{96.664} )=arccos(0.4138 )=65.56$

Therefore angle between u and v is 65.56°
