Question

what additional information could be used to prove that the triangles are congruent using aas or asa? select three options. ∠b≅∠p and bc≅pq ∠a≅∠t and ac = tq = 3.2cm ∠a≅∠t and ∠b≅∠p ∠a≅∠t and bc≅pq ac = tq = 3.2 cm and cb = qp = 2.2 cm

Explanation:

Step1: Recall AAS and ASA criteria

AAS (Angle - Angle - Side) requires two pairs of congruent angles and a non - included side congruent. ASA (Angle - Side - Angle) requires two pairs of congruent angles and the included side congruent.

Step2: Analyze each option

  • For $\angle B\cong\angle P$ and $\overline{BC}\cong\overline{PQ}$, we don't have enough angle - angle information for AAS or ASA.
  • For $\angle A\cong\angle T$ and $AC = TQ=3.2$cm, if we consider another pair of angles, it can be AAS or ASA.
  • For $\angle A\cong\angle T$ and $\angle B\cong\angle P$, with two pairs of angles congruent, if we know a side is congruent, it can be AAS or ASA.
  • For $\angle A\cong\angle T$ and $\overline{BC}\cong\overline{PQ}$, with two angles and a non - included side, it can be AAS.
  • For $AC = TQ = 3.2$cm and $CB=QP = 2.2$cm, this is SSS (Side - Side - Side) information, not relevant for AAS or ASA.

Answer:

$\angle A\cong\angle T$ and $AC = TQ = 3.2$cm, $\angle A\cong\angle T$ and $\angle B\cong\angle P$, $\angle A\cong\angle T$ and $\overline{BC}\cong\overline{PQ}$
