3 0

Answer:

1. SSS

2. SAS

3. SAS

4. SSS

5. SAS

6. SAS

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Side FY ≅ Side CW  Given

Side FP ≅ Side CM     Given

Side YP ≅ Side MW    Given

∴ΔMCW ≅ ΔFPY by the Side-Side-Side (SSS) rule of congruency

2) ∠CBD ≅ ∠BCA given that both are alternate interior angles

Side EB ≅ Side EC and Side DB ≅ Side CA Given

ΔBED ≅ ΔAEC by Side-Angle-Side (SAS) rule of congruency

3. ∠SVU ≅ ∠SVT   Given

Side SV ≅ Side SV  by reflexive property

Side VT ≅ Side VU   Given

∴ ΔVSU ≅ ΔVST by Side-Angle-Side (SAS) rule of congruency

4. Side MN ≅ Side QP  Given

Side MQ ≅ Side NP     Given

Side NQ ≅ Side NQ    by reflexive property

∴ΔQNM ≅ ΔQNP by the Side-Side-Side (SSS) rule of congruency

5. Indirect proof

Side GL ≅ Side HL  Given

Side GJ ≅ Side HK     Given

∠JLG ≅ ∠HLK    vertically opposite angles

By sine rule

GJ/sin(∠JLG) = GL/n(∠GJL)

Similarly

HK/sin(∠HLK) = HL/n(∠HKL)

∴ ∠GJL ≅ ∠HKL

∴ ∠LGJ ≅ ∠LHK third angle of two triangles given the other two angles are congruent

∴ΔQNM ≅ ΔQNP by the Side-Angle-Side (SAS) rule of congruency

6. ∠XZY ≅ ∠XZW   Supplementary ∠s with ∠XZY = 90°

Side XZ ≅ Side XZ  by reflexive property

Side ZW ≅ Side ZY   Given

∴ ΔXYZ ≅ ΔXWZ by Side-Angle-Side (SAS) rule of congruency.
