Identifying the Reason in Proving Congruent Triangles Given: RT || SP, RQ QP, RP bisects ST at Q
Prove: ARQT 2 APQS
Tamir is working to prove the triangles congruent using
SAS. After stating the given information, he states that
TQ > QS by the definition of segment bisector. Now he
wants to state that ZRQT ZPQS. Which reason
should he use?
R
S
alternate interior angles theorem
corresponding angles theorem
linear pair postulate
vertical angles theorem
T
P
