Question

which of the following pairs of triangles could you use to justify that the sas congruence theorem is true? (1 point)

Explanation:

Step1: Recall SAS Congruence Theorem

The SAS (Side - Angle - Side) Congruence Theorem states that if two sides and the included angle of one triangle are congruent to two sides and the included angle of another triangle, then the two triangles are congruent.

Step2: Analyze triangle pairs

We need to look for pairs of triangles where two sides and the angle between them are marked as congruent. In the first pair of triangles $\triangle FEG$ and $\triangle HIJ$, we can see that one side of $\triangle FEG$ is congruent to a side of $\triangle HIJ$ (the single - hash marked sides), the angles between the sides are congruent (the marked angles), and another pair of sides are congruent (the double - hash marked sides).

Answer:

The first pair of triangles (the upper - most pair of triangles in the image) can be used to justify the SAS Congruence Theorem.
