Question

Which statement is an example of the transitive property of congruence?

Answer 1

Answer:

  B.  If ΔKLM ≅ ΔPQR and ΔPQR ≅ ΔSTU, then ΔKLM ≅ ΔSTU

Step-by-step explanation:

The transitive property in general says ...

  if a=b and b=c, then a=c

The transitive property of congruence replaces the equal sign with a congruence symbol, and replaces a, b, c with any geometric figure. Here, the geometric figures used are triangles KLM, PQR, and STU.

  If ΔKLM ≅ ΔPQR and ΔPQR ≅ ΔSTU, then ΔKLM ≅ ΔSTU
