Question

question 2 of 10
which property is illustrated by the following statement?
△jar ≅ △jar
a. reflexive
b. transitive
c. associative
d. symmetric

Explanation:

The reflexive property of congruence states that any geometric figure is congruent to itself. Here, \( \triangle JAR \cong \triangle JAR \) shows a triangle is congruent to itself, which matches the reflexive property. The transitive property involves three figures (\( A \cong B \), \( B \cong C \) implies \( A \cong C \)), associative is for operations (not congruence), and symmetric is \( A \cong B \) implies \( B \cong A \), which doesn't apply here.

Answer:

A. Reflexive
