Step4: Match congruent triangle vertices
$\triangle RQS \cong \triangle YWX$, so $\angle Q \cong \angle W$
Step5: Match congruent triangle vertices
$\triangle GFE \cong \triangle FGP$, so $\overline{GF} \cong \overline{FG}$
Step6: Match congruent triangle sides
From tick marks, $\overline{QR} \cong \overline{EG}$
Step7: Match congruent triangle angles
From tick marks, $\angle U \cong \angle S$
Step8: Use alternate exterior angles
$m\angle2 = 88^\circ$, so $x+56=88$
$x=88-56=32$
Step9: Use isosceles triangle properties
$\angle2=40^\circ$, so $8x+6=40$
$8x=34$
$x=\frac{34}{8}=4.25$
Step10: Check triangle congruence
Triangles share a side, have 2 pairs of congruent sides (SSS). Congruent by SSS.
Step11: Check triangle congruence
No matching side-angle pairs to prove congruence. Not congruent.
