Hello :
<span>the nth term of a geometric sequence is :
Un = Up ×r^(n-p) . r is the common ratio
for : p=5 and n= 2
U5 = U2 ×r^3
16 = -2 r^3
r^3 = -8
but : -8 = (-2)^3
so : r = -2
Un = U2 × r^(n-2)
Un = -2 ×(-2)^(n-2)= (-2)^(n-2+1)
</span><span>the nth term of a geometric sequenceis : Un = (-2)^(n-1)</span>
The red lines mean the sides with the lines are the same. The red arc means those angles are the same.
Using that information you know the angle where the two same sides connect would also be the same.
So you have one side (S) and 2 angles (A) that are identical.
You can use B. ASA
