Answer:
no
Step-by-step explanation:
We expect you're supposed to answer, NO. This is because an angle and two sides are specified, where the angle is <em>not</em> between the two sides. There is no SSA theorem for congruence, so this specification is generally considered to be insufficient.
_____
<em>Additional comment</em>
The given information is enough to completely specify the given triangle. The reason this is true is that the given angle is opposite the longest of the given sides. A general SSA theorem cannot guarantee that will be the case, so there is no general SSA congruence theorem.
Provided that you have corresponding side and angle information for the other triangle, <em>congruence can be determined (yes).</em> A single triangle by itself cannot be shown congruent to anything.

Answer:
The third choice
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to find the slope and y-intercept of the line and then put it into y = mx = b form. To find the slope, pick a point on the line; I will use (-2, 5); count how many units up you need to go to get to the next point on the line, which in this case it would be 3. The count how many to the right or left you would need to go, which is 1 to the left. Moving left means a negative, so it is -1. Your slope fraction would be , since slope is rise over run. You can sub this fraction in for m in y = mx + b, which will give you a revised equation of y = -3x = b. To find the y intercept, or b, just find the point where the line crosses the y-axis, which is -1. So, the equation is now y = -3x - 1.The correct answer is third choice.
