Question

Which formula is best used to prove that a figure has congruent sides?

Answer 1

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

Congruent sides mean that they have "EQUAL" lengths.

So, to prove to sides are congruent means that their lengths are equal.

Slope gives the slope of a line. So this can't be it.

Area gives the area of figure. Nothing to do with congruency of 2 lines.

Midpoint formula gives the coordinates of the midpoint. Nothing here.

Distance formula gives the length of sides. So, this is the one we can use to prove that a figure has congruent sides. We can place the figure in coordinate system and find the length of 2 respective sides using "distance formula"

Correct answer is D
