Question

a median drawn to a side of a triangle is
select one:
a. a segment
b. a line
c. a ray

which of the following is not a method for proving triangles congruent?
select one:
a. asa
b. sss
c. sas
d. aas
e. ssa

Explanation:

For the first question: A triangle's median connects a vertex to the midpoint of the opposite side, so it has two distinct endpoints, making it a segment.
For the second question: ASA, SSS, SAS, and AAS are all valid congruence criteria. SSA does not guarantee triangle congruence, as it can produce non-congruent triangles (the ambiguous case in triangles).

Answer:

1. a. a segment
2. e. SSA
