Math Problem Statement
Solution
To determine which two triangles are congruent by the ASA (Angle-Side-Angle) Theorem, let's analyze the given triangles and their markings.
The ASA Theorem states that if two angles and the included side of one triangle are congruent to two angles and the included side of another triangle, then the triangles are congruent.
-
In triangle :
- Angle and are marked as congruent to the corresponding angles in another triangle.
- Side is marked with a double line.
-
In triangle :
- Angle and are marked as congruent.
- Side is marked with a double line.
-
In triangle :
- Angle and are marked as congruent.
- Side is marked with a double line.
From these observations, we see that and both have two pairs of congruent angles and the included side marked as congruent. Thus, by the ASA Theorem:
