Transcript text: With the information given below, can you conclude that $\triangle L M N \cong \triangle X Y Z$ ?
Yes
No
Solution
Solution Steps
Step 1: Analyze the given information
We are given two triangles, △LMN and △XYZ. We know that LM≅XY, MN≅YZ, and ∠N≅∠Z. These are two sides and an angle that are congruent between the two triangles.
Step 2: Determine if the information is sufficient to prove congruency
The given information matches the Side-Angle-Side (SAS) postulate if the angle is between the two sides. In △LMN, the angle N is between sides LM and MN. Similarly, the angle Z is between sides XY and YZ in △XYZ. Therefore, the SAS postulate applies.
