If VX = WZ = 40 cm and m∠ZVX = m∠XWZ = 22°, can ΔVZX and ΔWXZ be proven congruent by SAS? Why or why not?

Yes, along with the given information, ZX ≅ ZX by the reflexive property.
Yes, the triangles are both obtuse.
No, the sides of the triangles intersect.
No, there is not enough information giv

Respuesta :

the answer is D i just took the test and got it right :)

The correct answer is:

No, there is not enough information given.

Explanation:

Using VX = WZ and m∠ZVX = m∠XWZ, we have a side and an angle. In order to prove the triangles congruent by SAS, we must have two sides and the angle between them. With the information we have now, we would have to have VZ = WX. However, we are not given that information.

We do have that ZX = ZX by the reflexive property, but this is not SAS, as the angle we have is not between the two sides.
