Identify the congruence theorem being used to prove the triangles are congruent.

ASA

Given lines m and n are parallel, solve for x.

(6x - 9) + (2x - 19) = 180 ; x = 26

Find the midpoint of the segment with endpoints (-5, -4) and (-8, 3). Write your ordered pair with fractions in simplest form, if neccesary.

midpoint((-5, -4),(-8,3)) = (-13/2 , -1/2)

Given A (7, -5) and B (16, 7). Find the slope of segment AB.

m = rise/run = 12/9 = 4/3

Identify the construction.

b) perpendicular bisector of XY

Two sides of a triangle measure 29 and 56 inches. What is the possible range of values for the third side of the triangle?

Max: 29 + 56 = 85 ; Min: 56 - 29 = 27 ; 27 < x < 85

Given: E is the midpoint of BD and AB || CD. Which postulate/theorem is sufficient to prove ΔABE ≅ ΔCDE?

ASA (mark vertical & alt. interior angles, then BE = ED because bisected)

Given: ∠W ≅ ∠Y; XZ bisects ∠WXY. Which postulate/theorem is sufficient to prove ΔWXZ ≅ ΔYXZ?

AAS (Given: ∠W ≅ ∠Y, ∠WXZ ≅ ∠YXZ because bisected, XZ = XZ by Reflexive)

What values for x and y make ΔABC ≅ ΔFDE?

5x - 4 = 21: x = 5 ; 4y = 56: y = 14

Select the measures that could be the three side lengths of a right triangle.
