You cannot rely on the drawing alone to prove or disprove congruences. Instead, pull out the info about the sides and angles being congruent so we can make our decision.

The diagram shows that:

  • Side AB = Side XY (sides with one tick mark)
  • Side BC = Side YZ (sides with double tickmarks)
  • Angle C = Angle Z (similar angle markers)

We have two pairs of congruent sides, and we also have a pair of congruent angles. We can't use SAS because the angles are not between the congruent sides. Instead we have SSA which is not a valid congruence theorem (recall that ambiguity is possible for SSA). The triangles may be congruent, or they may not be, we would need more information.

---------------

So to answer the question if they are congruent, I would say "not enough info". If you must go with a yes/no answer, then I would say "no, they are not congruent" simply because we cannot say they are congruent. Again we would need more information.

For
y=ax²+bx+c
the x value of the axis of symmetry is -b/(2a)

so test them

A., -b/(2a)=-(-8)/(2*-2)=8/-4=-2, yep
B. -b/(2a)=-2/(2*1/2)=-2/1=-2, yep
C. -b/(2a)=-(-16)/(2*4)=16/8=2, nope, need -2
D. -b/(2a)=-12/(2*3)=-12/6=-2, yep

answer is C

pogonyaev

Answer: I dont know if im right for sure but the answer should be 4

Step-by-step explanation

8 goes into 2 4 times (8 divided by 2 = 4)

Each child ate 2 pieces (4-2=2)

so therefore for it to be 2 pieces left over there were 4 kids I think.
