Question

Which statement correctly compares Line segment AB Which statement correctly compares Line segment AB and Line segment FD? And Line segment FD?

Answer 1

Answer:

AB is longer FD

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

See attachment for triangles ABC and FDE

Required

Compare line segments AB and FD

From the attachment, we have:

$AC = FE$ --- equal line segments

The measure of angles will then be used to compare the line segments;

$\angle C = 72^o$

$\angle F = 65^o$

The longer the angle of depression, the shorter the required line segment

$72 > 65$ implies that AB is longer
