Explain why ΔABC cannot be shown to be congruent to ΔCDA.

Mathematics

igomit [66]2 years ago

There isn't enough info to prove the triangles to be congruent or not. So we can't say for sure either way.

We have angle CAD = angle ACB given by the arc markings, and we know that AC = AC due to the reflexive theorem. However we are missing one third piece of information.

That third piece of info could be....

  • AD = BC which allows us to use SAS
  • angle ACD = angle CAB which allows us to use ASA
  • angle ABC = angle CDA which allows us to use AAS (slight variation of ASA)

Since we don't know any of those three facts, we simply don't have enough information.

side note: If AB = CD, then this leads to SSA which is not a valid congruence theorem. If we had two congruent sides, the angle must be between the two sides, which is what AD = BC allows.

Which pairs of quadrilaterals can be shown to be congruent using rigid motions?
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

1 and 2 are not congruent; 1 and 3 are congruent; 1 and 4 are congruent; 2 and 3 are not congruent; 2 and 4 are not congruent; 3 and 4 are congruent.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the diagram, we can see that the angle measures and side measures of figures 1, 3 and 4 are the same.  This means that these three figures are congruent.  Figure 2, however, is not congruent to any of the other 3.
