Which congruence theorem can be used to prove Abda Adbc?

Sagot :

The congruence theorem that will prove △BDA and △DBC is A. Hypotenuse-leg (HL) congruence.

Determining the right congruence theorem that will prove △BDA and △DBC after being provided a schematic of two right triangles.

Since we are aware that the hypotenuse-leg theorem stipulates that if the hypotenuse and one of the right triangles' legs are congruent with their equivalent hypotenuses in other right triangles, the triangles are said to be congruent.

We can see from our diagram that hypotenuse(AB) of △BDA equals to hypotenuse (CD) of △DBC.  

We can see that triangles BDA and DBC share a common side DB.

Using Pythagorean theorem we will get

CD² = DB²+BC²

AB = DB²+AD²

given that CD=AB, Upon using this information we will get,

DB²+BC² = DB²+AD²

subtracting DB² from both sides of our equation we will get,

BC² = AD²

Cutting squares on both sides

BC = AD

Hence, by HL congruence △BDA ≅ △DBC.
