Hi, I've looked over notes, and checked with friends in my class but I'm having a really hard time understanding it.

If anyone could give like a glance over of what I did and tell me if I'm going in the right direction that would be great.

Thanks Luna

You used congruence criterions to prove congruency of some triangles
and yes, your logic and deduction is correct

basically conditions, like SSS, SAS, ASA, AAS

flat pike
#

Ohh okay

#

Thank you, sorry ive been struggling with this stuff since the semester started

halcyon sentinel
#

okay, gl ahead

#

How do i remove the post?

#

Or do i need to?

Solved

Post marked as solved by @flat pike.

Use .unsolved if this was a mistake.

oh wait, one tiny correction
its not ASA
it is AAS in both
and you have misineterpreted the bisect condition. Its not bisecting side; its bisecting angles

beep boop, the world machine is learning math

flat pike
#

Im so confused

halcyon sentinel
#

okay, wait, let me explain

#

in ASA, you find side between 2 congruent angles
in AAS, you find side that is NOT between them(can be other 2 sides)

flat pike
#

So what should I change?

#

Sorry im just really struggling in this class

halcyon sentinel
#

in first, you are not given BD bisects the side AC(AC doesnt even exist)
it bisects angles

flat pike
#

Thats whats in the given?

halcyon sentinel
#

but statement has sides AB = CB

#

See your 2nd statement

flat pike
#

What does it need to be changed to

halcyon sentinel
#

see whats the common side between the triangles

#

a side the comes in both triangles

#

are you there?

flat pike
#

Sorry having a mental breakdown

#

Im on track to fail the class and I can't get proper toutering

halcyon sentinel
#

uhm, are you familiar with congruency?

flat pike
#

Yes

#

One side is equal to another

halcyon sentinel
#

okay, I see
its not that one side is equal to another, its much broader than that
its that, lets take an example
you have 2 triangles ABC and DEF
If you say that these are congruent, then that means these 6 things are true:
AB = DE, BC = EF, AC = DF. angle(A) = angle(D), angle(B) = angle(E), angle(C) = angle(F)

#

You know that?

#

still in mental breakdown?

flat pike
#

Thanks for your help but im going to have my mom talk with the consular about me struggling so much

halcyon sentinel
#

oh, okay

#

ur health matters

flat pike
#

Ill see if i can be put in a non honors or a different class entirely
