Question

problem 13: (first taught in lesson 13) from this given statement, select the definition, property, postulate, or theorem that justifies the prove statement. given: $overline{qw}congoverline{st},overline{st}congoverline{uv}$ prove: $overline{qw}congoverline{uv}$

Explanation:

The transitive property of congruence states that if one geometric figure (in this case, line - segment $\overline{QW}$ is congruent to $\overline{ST}$) and the second geometric figure ($\overline{ST}$ is congruent to $\overline{UV}$), then the first is congruent to the third ($\overline{QW}$ is congruent to $\overline{UV}$).

Answer:

Transitive property of congruence
