On the first day of spring, an entire field of flowering trees blossoms. The population of locusts consuming these flowers rapidly increases as the trees blossom. The relationship between the elapsed time, t in days, since the beginning of spring, and the total number of locust is modeled by the following function:L(t)=1200*(1.65)^t

Which of the following would be a correct step in proving that triangle abc is congruent to triangle cda? a. use a protractor to measure the angles and show that all the corresponding angles are equal in measure. this will allow you to prove congruence by aaa. b. show that segment ab is parallel to segment cd and segment ad is parallel to segment cb. this will allow you to prove congruency by asa. c. show that is segment ab is perpendicular to segment ad. this will allow you to prove congruence by sas. d. none of the above.
