Question

8.7 congruent line segments 6/10 is $overline{ef}$ congruent to $overline{fg}$? -60 -40 -20 0 20 40 60 80 e f g yes no submit

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate length of $\overline{EF}$

The coordinate of $E$ is - 20 and the coordinate of $F$ is 20. The length of $\overline{EF}$ is $|20-(-20)|=|20 + 20|=40$.

Step2: Calculate length of $\overline{FG}$

The coordinate of $F$ is 20 and the coordinate of $G$ is 40. The length of $\overline{FG}$ is $|40 - 20|=20$.

Step3: Compare lengths

Since $40
eq20$, $\overline{EF}$ is not congruent to $\overline{FG}$.

Answer:

no
