PLEASE HELP, GEOMETRY. 25 points and brainliest. Please don't put random answers or "i dont knows" as the answer. It's really rude to do when someone actually needs help. I am SO BAD with proofs and I would be grateful if someone helped me here and explained why the reasoning is what it is. Thank you :) Geometry Writing Prompt 2

Directions: Determine what reason is missing from the proof. Write one paragraph explaining how you know that’s the correct reason. See the grading rubric for all requirements for writing a paragraph.

Option 1:

The missing reason is AAS Congruence Theorem

You can simply say AAS for short, and your teacher will likely know what you mean.

The AAS stands for Angle Angle Side. It refers to the fact how we can use two pairs of congruent angles, and a side that is not between the angles, to prove two triangles are congruent.

In this case, ABE = CDE are the two congruent 90 degree angles, and AEB = DEC are the two vertical angles

The two congruent sides are shown by the tickmarks, so AB = CD. In other words, this information is given.

Keep in mind that AAS is slightly different from ASA, so the order matters.

the equation for this situation is y=122+45. to solve the equation you would add 45 and 122 to get a total of 167lbs. in conclusion, grace's weight eight weeks ago was 167lbs.
