Question
- given that △ymz and △qmp are identical, and yz = 13, qm = 15, and pm = 15, complete the table below to determine the remaining measurements.
side: qp, ym, zm
measure:
Step1: Recall property of congruent triangles
If $\triangle YMZ$ and $\triangle QMP$ are identical (congruent), then corresponding - sides are equal.
Step2: Identify corresponding sides
$\overline{ZM}$ corresponds to $\overline{QM}$, $\overline{YM}$ corresponds to $\overline{PM}$, and $\overline{QP}$ corresponds to $\overline{YZ}$.
Step3: Substitute given values
Since $\overline{QM}=15$, then $ZM = 15$; since $\overline{PM}=15$, then $YM = 15$; since $\overline{YZ}=13$, then $QP = 13$.
