Consider the diagram and proof by contradiction. Given: △ABC with ∠B ≅ ∠C
Prove: AB ≅ AC

Triangle A B C is shown. Angles A B C and B C A are congruent.

It is given that ∠B ≅ ∠C. Assume AB and AC are not congruent. If AB > AC, then m∠C > m∠B by . If AC > AB, then m∠B > m∠C for the same reason. However, using the given statement and the definition of congruency, we know that m∠B = m∠C. Therefore, AB = AC and AB ≅ AC.

What is the missing reason in the proof?

converse of the triangle parts relationship theorem
substitution
definition of congruency
converse of the isosceles triangle theorem

Someone answer asap for ! max recorded the heights of 500 male humans. he found that the heights were normally distributed around a mean of 177 centimeters. which statements about max’s data must be true? a. the median of max’s data is 250 b. more than half of the data points max recorded were 177 centimeters. c. a data point chosen at random is as likely to be above the mean as it is to be below the mean. d. every height within three standard deviations of the mean is equally likely to be chosen if a data point is selected at random.
