The question is incomplete. Below you will find the missing content and figure
Which value of x would make triangle ΔSUV is congruent to triangle ΔTUM by HL? Options are 2 3 4 5
The figure is shown below.
The correct option is Option D: the value of x is 5.
Triangles are congruent if the triangles are of the same size and shape. If triangles are congruent the corresponding length of the sides is the same.
Here given that triangle ΔSUV is congruent to triangle ΔTUM.
By the property of the congruent triangle, as triangle ΔSUV and ΔTUM are congruent the corresponding sides are also same.
ΔSUV ≅ΔTUM
⇒ VS≅WT
Given in the question
VS= 2x+9
WT= 4x-1
from above it is clear that
VS=WT
⇒ 2x+9=4x-1
⇒4x-2x=9+1
⇒2x=10
⇒x=10/2
⇒x=5
Therefore the correct option is Option D: the value of x is 5.
