Step-by-step explanation:
from what I can see there are 2 options to make the 2 triangles congruent :
either the opposite sides must be equal or the neighboring sides must be equal.
so, either
5x = 3x + 10
and
5x - 2 = 4x + 3
or
5x = 4x + 3
and
5x - 2 = 3x + 10
for the first
5x = 3x + 10
2x = 10
x = 5
control
5x - 2 = 4w + 3
5×5 - 2 = 4×5 + 3
23 = 23
correct.
for the second
5x = 4x + 3
x = 3
control
5×3 - 2 = 3×3 + 10
15 - 2 = 9 + 10
13 = 19
no, not a valid solution.
so, x = 5
<span>The original statement would remove the two "not" values from the converse, giving "If it is April 17th, then it is Matt's birthday." Similarly, to find the inverse of the original conditional, simply flip the two statements. As such, the inverse would read "If it is Matt's birthday, then it is April 17th."</span>
