The previous questions have shown that, if two angles of one triangle are congruent to two angles of another triangle, then all the conditions of similar triangles are met (all angles are congruent and the ratios of the corresponding sides are equal). What would change if the assumption AB<PQ was changed? Choose all correct answers.
  1. If AB=PQ, then the two triangles would be congruent.
  2. If AB=PQ, then the two triangles must be coincident before any transformations are performed.
  3. If AB>PQ, the two triangles would not be similar or congruent.
  4. If AB>PQ, the triangles would still be similar, and only minor changes to the math in showing them to be similar would be required.

After applying the transformation in the previous question to ΔA2B2C2, the newly transformed triangle is ΔA3B3C3 and point A3 lies on ¯PQ. It may be that point C3 lies on ¯PQ. If not, a reflection over the line PQ, applied to ΔA3B3C3 will ensure that it does. Why is it certain that point C4 (or C3 if the transformation is unnecessary) will lie on ¯QR?
  1. Congruent angles B and Q must have congruent arms.
  2. Since a translation and rotation have already been applied, a reflection must transform C to ¯QR.
  3. For two congruent angles, B and Q, if the vertices are coincident, then the arms must be coincident.
  4. For two congruent angles, B and Q, if the initial arms are coincident and both angles are measured in the same direction, then the terminal arms must be coincident.

Given the previous result, it can be concluded that ¯A4C4 || ¯PR. Which of the following is the reason why?
  1. If two lines are cut by a transversal and corresponding angles are congruent, then the lines are parallel.

  3. If two lines are cut by a transversal and alternate exterior angles are congruent, then the lines are parallel
  4. If two lines are cut by a transversal and the sum of the measures of consecutive interior angles is 180°, then the lines are parallel
