Is LMN OPQ If so name the congruence postulate that applies?
congruent - SSSAnswer by Arteom, Friday December 10, 2010
Complete this sentence after a congruence transformation the area of a triangle would be it was before?
This sentence can be complete as: After a congruence transformation the area of a triangle would be the same as it was before.
What are necessary when proving that the diagonals of a rectangle are congruent?
A ruler or a compass would help or aternatively use Pythagoras' theorem to prove that the diagonals are of equal lengths
A statement that is accepted as true without proof Also called an axion?
That would be a postulate
What else would need to be congruent to show that efg is congruent to hij by sss?
SSS is enough to show congruence.
What theorem is used to prove the AAS triangle congruence theorem?
Excuse me, but two triangles that have A-A-S of one equal respectively to A-A-S of the other are not necessarily congruent. I would love to see that proof!
What is ass or ssa congruence postulate?
The ASS postulate would be that:if an angle and two sides of one triangle are congruent to the corresponding angle and two sides of a second triangle, then the two triangles are congruent.The SSA postulate would be similar.Neither is true.
Which postulate or theorem can be used to prove that triangle PRS is congruent to triangle QRS?
We cannot determine without seeing the data for PRS & QRS. My guess though would be ASA Though it could also be SSS
What is difference in axiom and postulate?
Theorem: A Proven Statement. Postulate: An Accepted Statement without Proof. They mean similar things. A postulate is an unproven statement that is considered to be true; however a theorem is simply a statement that may be true or false, but only considered to be true if it has been proven.
which statement completes the paragraph proof?
I'm happy to help! Please provide the paragraph or the statement you would like me to complete.
The AA Similarity Postulate states that two triangles are similar if they have?
You would use the AA Similarity Postulate to prove that the following two triangles are similar. True or false?

Did Pythagoras prove his own Theorem?
Yes, he must have proved his own Theorem otherwise it would not have been adopted by mathematicians across the globe. I'm sure you could test out the theorem: check whether c2 really does equal b2 + a2 in a manual measurement of a triangle; though this is less accurate and not as precise as the Theorem.
How can we use dilating and congruence transformation to prove two triangles are similar?
Recall that two triangles are similar if one is simply a larger or smaller version of the other. So if you can make one bigger or smaller (this is called dilating) so that it looks exactly the same as another (and would fit exactly if moved with a congruence transform), then this would show similarity.

Can two pentagons be congruent by a Side side side side side congruence theorem like triangle congruence theorems?
Not in general. Imagine making a pentagon out of sticks connected with hinges for the vertexes. You can bend it all around, making pentagons that are not congruent to the original, even though the sides remain the same length. A similar triangle would be rigid, even if the corners were connected with hinges.
