Answer: 1) C. Reflexive Property of Congruence
2) A. MD ≅ SG
3) C. 5.3
4) D. LK || MJ & JK ≡ LM
Step-by-step explanation:
1) An angle or side is congruent to itself by the Reflexive Property
2) TM ≡ LG Sides are congruent (given)
∠M ≡ ∠G Angles are congruent (given)
MD ≡ SG Sides are congruent
ΔTMD ≡ ΔLGS Side-Angle-Side (SAS) Theorem
Note: The angle must connect the two sides
3) Use similarity proportion
[tex]\dfrac{6}{x}=\dfrac{9}{8}\\\\\\48=9x\\\\\\\dfrac{48}{9}=x\\\\\\5.3=x[/tex]
4) In order to prove a polygon is a parallelogram, you must show
- opposite sides are parallel
- opposite sides are congruent
