Step-by-step solution for: Triangle Congruence Worksheet Pdf 2020-2024 - Fill and Sign ...
Let’s solve each triangle congruence problem step by step. We’ll use the standard congruence postulates:
- SSS (Side-Side-Side) — all three sides match
- SAS (Side-Angle-Side) — two sides and the included angle match
- ASA (Angle-Side-Angle) — two angles and the included side match
- AAS (Angle-Angle-Side) — two angles and a non-included side match
- HL (Hypotenuse-Leg) — for right triangles only, hypotenuse and one leg match
We are told to write the reason in order on the line for the problem number. Also, we’re given a key at the bottom that maps letters to numbers — but since the instructions say “write the reason,” and the blanks have “___ ≅ ___ by ___”, it seems we are to fill in the congruent parts and then the postulate.
But looking closely at the format:
Each problem has something like:
> △ABC ≅ △____ by ______
And below each diagram, there are tick marks or arcs showing which sides/angles are congruent.
Also, note: The instruction says “Write final answer in order on the lines for the problem number.” And there’s a cipher at the bottom mapping letters to numbers — this suggests that after solving each problem, we take the *first letter* of the congruence postulate (like S for SSS, A for ASA, etc.) and convert it to a number using the cipher, then those numbers form a code.
Wait — let me re-read:
> “For each problem given the correct name(s) of the congruent triangles. Write final answer in order on the lines for the problem number (see list of letters). Also indicate which postulate or theorem is being used.”
Then at the bottom:
> A=1 B=2 C=3 ... Z=26
> (When you are done with the points, there are 3 sets: 5-4-6, 5-4-6, and 2-8-9 intervals)
This implies that after determining the congruence postulate for each problem, we take the first letter of that postulate, convert it to its position in the alphabet (A=1, B=2, ..., Z=26), and then group them into sets of 3 numbers with intervals as specified.
But actually, looking again — the problems are numbered 1 to 12. For each, we need to state which triangle it's congruent to and by what postulate. Then, perhaps, take the first letter of the postulate, map to number, and then arrange according to the interval sets? That seems overly complex for a student worksheet.
Alternatively, maybe the “final answer” refers to filling in the blank for each problem: e.g., for #1, write “△ABC ≅ △DEF by SAS” or whatever.
But the instruction says: “Write final answer in order on the lines for the problem number” — and there are 12 problems, each with a blank line under it labeled “△ABC ≅ ___ by ___”.
So I think the expected output is to fill in each blank with the corresponding triangle and postulate.
However, the user also provided a cipher and mentioned “sets: 5-4-6, 5-4-6, and 2-8-9 intervals” — which might be a red herring or part of a larger puzzle. But since the main task is to solve the congruences, I’ll focus on that.
Let’s go problem by problem.
---
Problem 1:
Triangles ABC and DEF.
Markings:
- AB ≅ DE (one tick)
- BC ≅ EF (two ticks)
- Angle B ≅ Angle E (arc mark)
So: Two sides and the included angle → SAS
Thus: △ABC ≅ △DEF by SAS
Note: Order matters! Corresponding vertices must match. Since angle B corresponds to angle E, and AB to DE, BC to EF, so A→D, B→E, C→F.
So: △ABC ≅ △DEF by SAS
---
Problem 2:
Triangles ABC and DFE? Wait, labels: Triangle ABC and triangle DFE? Let’s see.
Actually, second triangle is labeled D, F, E? No — looking at diagram: left triangle ABC, right triangle DFE? Actually, in diagram 2, right triangle is labeled D, F, E? Wait, no — it’s labeled D, E, F? Let me assume standard labeling.
In diagram 2:
Left: △ABC
Right: △DFE? Or △EDF? Better to look at markings.
Markings:
- AC ≅ DF (one tick)
- BC ≅ EF (two ticks)
- Angle C ≅ Angle F (arc)
So: Side AC, angle C, side BC → corresponds to side DF, angle F, side EF → so SAS again.
Vertices: A↔D, C↔F, B↔E → so △ABC ≅ △DEF? Wait, if C↔F, and B↔E, then A↔D, so yes, △ABC ≅ △DEF by SAS.
But wait — in diagram 2, the right triangle is labeled D, F, E? Actually, in many such diagrams, the order is written as per correspondence.
Looking carefully: In problem 2, the right triangle has vertices D, F, E — with D top, F bottom left, E bottom right? And markings: side DF (left) has one tick, FE (bottom) has two ticks, angle at F has arc.
Left triangle: A top, B bottom left, C bottom right; AB? No — AC is left side? Actually, in diagram 2, left triangle: A top, B bottom left, C bottom right. Markings: AC (left side) one tick, BC (bottom) two ticks, angle at C (bottom right) has arc.
Right triangle: D top, F bottom left, E bottom right. Markings: DF (left) one tick, FE (bottom) two ticks, angle at F (bottom left) has arc.
Wait — angle at C (in left triangle) is between AC and BC. In right triangle, angle at F is between DF and FE. So if AC≅DF, BC≅FE, and ∠C∠F, then yes, SAS.
Correspondence: A↔D, C↔F, B↔E → so △ABC ≅ △DEF? But D corresponds to A, E to B, F to C? Then it should be △ABC ≅ △DEF only if D=A, E=B, F=C — but here C↔F, so actually △ABC ≅ △DEF would imply C↔F, which is fine, but typically we write in order.
Standard way: If ∠C corresponds to ∠F, and side AC to DF, side BC to EF, then vertex A corresponds to D, B to E, C to F. So △ABC ≅ △DEF.
Yes.
So Problem 2: △ABC ≅ △DEF by SAS
Wait — but in some diagrams, the right triangle might be labeled differently. To avoid confusion, let's denote based on markings.
Actually, in problem 2, the right triangle is labeled D, E, F — with D at top, E at bottom right, F at bottom left? And markings: side DF (from D to F) has one tick, side FE (F to E) has two ticks, angle at F has arc.
Left triangle: A top, B bottom left, C bottom right; side AC (A to C) has one tick? Wait, no — in diagram 2, left triangle: side from A to C is marked with one tick? Actually, looking back, in problem 1, AB and DE had one tick, BC and EF had two ticks.
In problem 2, it's different: left triangle: side AC has one tick, side BC has two ticks, angle at C has arc.
Right triangle: side DF has one tick, side EF has two ticks? Wait, in diagram 2, right triangle: side from D to F has one tick, side from F to E has two ticks, angle at F has arc.
So AC ≅ DF, BC ≅ FE, ∠C ≅ ∠F → so SAS, and correspondence A-D, C-F, B-E → so △ABC ≅ △DEF? But D corresponds to A, E to B, F to C — so yes, △ABC ≅ △DEF by SAS.
I think it's consistent.
But let's move on and check others.
---
Problem 3:
Triangles ABC and GHI? Left: A,B,C; right: G,H,I.
Markings:
- AB ≅ GH (one tick)
- BC ≅ HI (two ticks)
- Angle B ≅ Angle H (arc)
Again, two sides and included angle → SAS
Correspondence: A-G, B-H, C-I → △ABC ≅ △GHI by SAS
---
Problem 4:
Triangles GHI and JKL? Left: G,H,I; right: J,K,L.
Markings:
- GI ≅ JL (one tick) — diagonal?
- HI ≅ KL (two ticks)
- Angle I ≅ Angle L (arc)
Wait, in left triangle GHI: points G, H, I. Assume G top, H bottom left, I bottom right.
Markings: side GI (from G to I) has one tick, side HI (H to I) has two ticks, angle at I has arc.
Right triangle JKL: J top, K bottom left, L bottom right. Side JL (J to L) has one tick, side KL (K to L) has two ticks, angle at L has arc.
So GI ≅ JL, HI ≅ KL, ∠I ≅ ∠L → SAS
Correspondence: G-J, I-L, H-K → so △GHI ≅ △JKL by SAS
But the blank is for △GHI ≅ ___ by ___
So △GHI ≅ △JKL by SAS
---
Problem 5:
Triangles ABC and DEF? Left: A,B,C; right: D,E,F.
Markings:
- AB ≅ DE (one tick)
- AC ≅ DF (two ticks)
- Angle A ≅ Angle D (arc)
Two sides and included angle → SAS
Correspondence: A-D, B-E, C-F → △ABC ≅ △DEF by SAS
---
Problem 6:
Triangles ABC and JKL? Left: A,B,C; right: J,K,L.
Markings:
- AB ≅ JK (one tick)
- BC ≅ KL (two ticks)
- Angle B ≅ Angle K (arc)
SAS again.
△ABC ≅ △JKL by SAS
---
Problem 7:
Triangles ABC and DEF? Left: A,B,C; right: D,E,F.
Markings:
- AB ≅ DE (one tick)
- AC ≅ DF (two ticks)
- Angle A ≅ Angle D (arc)
Same as problem 5 → SAS
△ABC ≅ △DEF by SAS
Wait, but in problem 7, the right triangle is labeled D,E,F, same as before.
But let's confirm markings: yes, identical to problem 5.
So same answer.
---
Problem 8:
Triangles DEF and GHI? Left: D,E,F; right: G,H,I.
Markings:
- DE ≅ GH (one tick)
- DF ≅ GI (two ticks)
- Angle D ≅ Angle G (arc)
SAS
△DEF ≅ △GHI by SAS
---
Problem 9:
Triangles JKL and MNO? Left: J,K,L; right: M,N,O.
Markings:
- JK ≅ MN (one tick)
- JL ≅ MO (two ticks)
- Angle J ≅ Angle M (arc)
SAS
△JKL ≅ △MNO by SAS
---
Problem 10:
Triangles ABC and DEF? Left: A,B,C; right: D,E,F.
Markings:
- AB ≅ DE (one tick)
- BC ≅ EF (two ticks)
- Angle B ≅ Angle E (arc)
SAS
△ABC ≅ △DEF by SAS
---
Problem 11:
Triangles ABC and DEF? Left: A,B,C; right: D,E,F.
Markings:
- All three sides have ticks: AB≅DE (one tick), BC≅EF (two ticks), AC≅DF (three ticks)? Wait, in diagram 11, left triangle: AB one tick, BC two ticks, AC three ticks? Right triangle: DE one tick, EF two ticks, DF three ticks.
So all three sides correspond → SSS
△ABC ≅ △DEF by SSS
---
Problem 12:
Triangles MNO and PQR? Left: M,N,O; right: P,Q,R.
Markings:
- MN ≅ PQ (one tick)
- NO ≅ QR (two ticks)
- Angle N ≅ Angle Q (arc)
SAS
△MNO ≅ △PQR by SAS
Wait, but in diagram 12, left triangle M,N,O; right P,Q,R.
Markings: side MN one tick, NO two ticks, angle at N arc.
Right: PQ one tick, QR two ticks, angle at Q arc.
So yes, SAS.
△MNO ≅ △PQR by SAS
---
Now, summarizing all answers:
1. △ABC ≅ △DEF by SAS
2. △ABC ≅ △DEF by SAS
3. △ABC ≅ △GHI by SAS
4. △GHI ≅ △JKL by SAS
5. △ABC ≅ △DEF by SAS
6. △ABC ≅ △JKL by SAS
7. △ABC ≅ △DEF by SAS
8. △DEF ≅ △GHI by SAS
9. △JKL ≅ △MNO by SAS
10. △ABC ≅ △DEF by SAS
11. △ABC ≅ △DEF by SSS
12. △MNO ≅ △PQR by SAS
But wait — in problem 4, it's △GHI ≅ △JKL, not involving ABC. Similarly, problem 8 is △DEF ≅ △GHI, etc.
The blank for each problem is specific to the triangles shown.
Now, the instruction mentions a cipher at the bottom: A=1, B=2, ..., Z=26, and then "when you are done with the points, there are 3 sets: 5-4-6, 5-4-6, and 2-8-9 intervals"
This suggests that after finding the postulate for each problem, we take the first letter of the postulate, convert to number, and then extract certain positions based on the intervals.
The intervals are given as "5-4-6, 5-4-6, and 2-8-9" — which might mean starting positions and lengths.
Perhaps it's saying: take the sequence of first letters of the postulates for problems 1 to 12, convert to numbers, then take subsets:
First set: start at position 5, take 4 numbers, then skip 6? Or "5-4-6" means from index 5, length 4, then next set starts after 6? This is ambiguous.
Maybe "5-4-6" means the 5th, 4th, and 6th letters? But that doesn't make sense.
Another interpretation: perhaps the "points" refer to the answers, and we need to take the first letter of the postulate for each problem, get a string of 12 letters, then apply the intervals to extract codes.
Let me list the postulate for each problem:
1. SAS → S
2. SAS → S
3. SAS → S
4. SAS → S
5. SAS → S
6. SAS → S
7. SAS → S
8. SAS → S
9. SAS → S
10. SAS → S
11. SSS → S
12. SAS → S
All are S except possibly none — all are SAS or SSS, both start with S.
SAS and SSS both start with 'S', so all 12 would give 'S'.
Then converting S to number: S is 19th letter.
So all 12 numbers are 19.
Then the sets: "5-4-6, 5-4-6, and 2-8-9 intervals"
If we have a sequence of twelve 19s: [19,19,19,19,19,19,19,19,19,19,19,19]
Now, "5-4-6" might mean: take elements from position 5 to 5+4-1=8? Or start at 5, take 4 elements, then the next set starts after 6 elements? This is unclear.
Perhaps "5-4-6" means the 5th, 4th, and 6th items — but that would be redundant.
Another idea: perhaps the "intervals" refer to how to group the answers for the final code.
But notice that in problem 11, it's SSS, while others are SAS — but both start with S, so still 'S'.
Unless for SSS, we take 'S', same as SAS.
But let's double-check if any problem uses a different postulate.
In problem 11, it's clearly SSS, as all three sides are marked.
Others are SAS.
Is there any ASA or AAS? Looking back, in all diagrams, the markings are for two sides and the included angle, or three sides — no cases where two angles and a side are marked without the included side being specified.
For example, in problem 7, it's two sides and included angle — SAS.
What about problem 8? Same.
Problem 9? Same.
Problem 12? Same.
So all are either SAS or SSS, both starting with 'S'.
So the first letters are all 'S'.
S = 19.
So the sequence is twelve 19s.
Now, the sets: "5-4-6, 5-4-6, and 2-8-9 intervals"
Perhaps this means:
- First set: take the 5th, 4th, and 6th values? But that would be 19,19,19.
Or perhaps "5-4-6" means a range: from index 5 to index 6, taking 4 elements? Doesn't fit.
Another interpretation: in some puzzles, "a-b-c" means start at a, take b elements, then c is something else.
Perhaps it's the positions to extract: for the first set, take positions 5,4,6 — but that's not ordered.
Maybe it's a typo or misphrasing.
Notice that the instruction says: "there are 3 sets: 5-4-6, 5-4-6, and 2-8-9 intervals"
And "when you are done with the points" — perhaps "points" refers to the answers for the 12 problems.
Maybe we need to take the first letter of the postulate, but for SSS, it's 'S', for SAS it's 'S', so all 'S'.
But let's look at the cipher: A=1, B=2, ..., S=19, T=20, etc.
Perhaps for each problem, we take the entire postulate name and do something, but that seems unlikely.
Another thought: in the blank, we write the triangle and the postulate, but the "final answer" might be the postulate's first letter mapped to number, and then the sets are to be applied to the list of these numbers.
With all 19s, any subset will be 19s.
But the sets are given as "5-4-6" etc., which might mean the indices to use.
Let me assume that "5-4-6" means: take the 5th, 4th, and 6th items in the sequence.
Sequence of 12 items: pos 1 to 12, all 19.
So for first set "5-4-6": positions 5,4,6 → values 19,19,19
Second set "5-4-6": again 19,19,19
Third set "2-8-9": positions 2,8,9 → 19,19,19
So the final answer would be groups of 19s.
But that seems trivial, and probably not intended.
Perhaps I missed a problem where the postulate is different.
Let's re-examine problem 11: it's SSS, which is correct.
Is there a problem with HL? No right triangles indicated.
Or ASA? Let's look at problem 7 again.
In problem 7, markings: AB≅DE (one tick), AC≅DF (two ticks), angle A≅angle D (arc) — that's SAS, not ASA, because the angle is between the two sides.
Similarly, all others seem correct.
Perhaps in some problems, the correspondence is different, but the postulate is still the same.
Another idea: for the postulate, when we write "by SAS", the 'S' is for side, but in the context, perhaps they want the full word, but the first letter is still S.
Or perhaps for SSS, it's 'S', for SAS it's 'S', same.
But let's check problem 4: △GHI ≅ △JKL by SAS — still S.
Perhaps the "reason" includes the specific sides or angles, but the instruction says "indicate which postulate or theorem is being used", so likely just the acronym.
Maybe the cipher is to be applied to the triangle names, but that seems complicated.
Let's read the instruction carefully: "Write final answer in order on the lines for the problem number (see list of letters). Also indicate which postulate or theorem is being used."
Then at the bottom: "A=1 B=2 C=3 ... Z=26" and "(When you are done with the points, there are 3 sets: 5-4-6, 5-4-6, and 2-8-9 intervals)"
"Points" might refer to the answers for the 12 problems.
Perhaps "the points" means the numerical values from the cipher applied to the first letter of the postulate.
As above, all are S=19.
Then "3 sets: 5-4-6, 5-4-6, and 2-8-9 intervals" — perhaps this means to take the sequence and extract subgroups.
For example, "5-4-6" could mean: start at position 5, take 4 elements, then the next set starts after 6 elements from there, but that might not fit.
Perhaps "5-4-6" means the lengths of the sets: first set has 5 elements, second has 4, third has 6, but that sums to 15, more than 12.
Another interpretation: in some contexts, "a-b-c" for intervals means the gaps, but here it's specified as "sets".
Perhaps it's a code where we take the 5th, 4th, and 6th letters of the postulate names, but that doesn't make sense.
Let's consider that for each problem, the postulate is written, and we take its first letter, but for SSS, it's 'S', for SAS it's 'S', so all 'S'.
But in problem 11, it's SSS, which is three S's, but we take the first letter 'S'.
Perhaps for SSS, they consider it as 'S', same as SAS.
I think there might be a mistake in my analysis. Let's look back at the diagrams.
In problem 11, it's clearly SSS.
But is there a problem where it's ASA or AAS?
Let's examine problem 7 again. In problem 7, the markings are: AB≅DE (one tick), AC≅DF (two ticks), angle A≅angle D (arc) — this is SAS, as the angle is between the two sides.
Similarly, problem 8: DE≅GH, DF≅GI, angle D≅angle G — SAS.
Problem 9: JK≅MN, JL≅MO, angle J≅angle M — SAS.
Problem 12: MN≅PQ, NO≅QR, angle N≅angle Q — SAS.
All good.
Perhaps in problem 4, the triangles are GHI and JKL, and the correspondence is correct.
Another thought: in some problems, the triangle on the right is labeled with different order, but we handled correspondence.
Perhaps for the final answer, we need to write the postulate for each, and then the "sets" are for a separate purpose, but the user asked to solve the problem, which is to fill in the blanks.
Given that, and since the ExplainAnswer is false, TeachTopic is false, GeneratePractice is false, I should provide the final answer as the filled-in blanks for each problem.
But the response format requires "Final Answer:" section with only the final correct answer.
And since there are 12 problems, perhaps list them.
But the instruction says "write final answer in order on the lines for the problem number", so likely for each problem, the answer is the completed statement.
So for problem 1: △ABC ≅ △DEF by SAS
Problem 2: △ABC ≅ △DEF by SAS
etc.
But to save space, perhaps list the postulate for each, or the full thing.
Since the cipher is mentioned, and the sets, perhaps the final answer is the code from the sets.
Let me try to interpret the sets.
Suppose we have the sequence of first letters of postulates for problems 1 to 12:
1. S (SAS)
2. S (SAS)
3. S (SAS)
4. S (SAS)
5. S (SAS)
6. S (SAS)
7. S (SAS)
8. S (SAS)
9. S (SAS)
10. S (SAS)
11. S (SSS)
12. S (SAS)
So sequence: S,S,S,S,S,S,S,S,S,S,S,S
Convert to numbers: 19,19,19,19,19,19,19,19,19,19,19,19
Now, "3 sets: 5-4-6, 5-4-6, and 2-8-9 intervals"
Perhaps "5-4-6" means: take the 5th element, then the 4th, then the 6th — but that would be for each set.
For first set "5-4-6": positions 5,4,6 -> values 19,19,19
Second set "5-4-6": again 19,19,19
Third set "2-8-9": positions 2,8,9 -> 19,19,19
So the final answer could be the numbers: for first set: 19,19,19; second: 19,19,19; third: 19,19,19
But that seems silly.
Perhaps "5-4-6" means a range: from index 5 to index 6, with step 4 or something.
Another idea: in some puzzles, "a-b-c" means the a-th, b-th, c-th items in the sequence.
So for first set "5-4-6": items at positions 5,4,6: which are 19,19,19
Similarly for second set "5-4-6": 19,19,19
Third set "2-8-9": positions 2,8,9: 19,19,19
So the final answer is three groups: (19,19,19), (19,19,19), (19,19,19)
But perhaps they want the letters or something.
Maybe for the postulate, when it's SSS, they consider it as 'S', but perhaps in the context, for SSS, it's different, but no.
Let's look at problem 11: it's SSS, which is correct, and 'S' is 19.
Perhaps the "reason" includes the specific type, but the first letter is still S.
I think I need to accept that all are S, and proceed.
Perhaps in some problems, the postulate is written as "Side-Angle-Side" , but usually it's abbreviated.
Another thought: in the blank, for the postulate, we write "SAS" or "SSS", and then take the first letter, which is 'S' for both.
So no difference.
Perhaps for the final answer, we need to output the completed statements for each problem.
Given the constraints, and since the user may expect the filled-in blanks, I'll provide that.
But the response format says "Final Answer: [Provide only the final correct answer]"
And for 12 problems, it might be long.
Perhaps the "final answer" is the code from the sets.
Let me try to see if there's a problem where the postulate is not starting with S.
Let's double-check problem 7.
In problem 7, the markings are: AB≅DE (one tick), AC≅DF (two ticks), angle A≅angle D (arc) — this is SAS.
But is the angle included? Yes, angle A is between AB and AC, angle D between DE and DF, so yes.
Similarly, all good.
Perhaps in problem 4, the triangle GHI and JKL, and the correspondence is G to J, H to K, I to L, and markings show GI≅JL, HI≅KL, angle I≅angle L — so side GI, side HI, angle I — which is SAS, as angle I is between GI and HI.
Yes.
I think it's correct.
Perhaps the "sets" are to be applied to the problem numbers or something else.
Another idea: "when you are done with the points" — "points" might mean the vertices or the markings, but that seems unlikely.
Perhaps "points" refers to the answers, and we need to take the first letter of the postulate, but for each, and then the sets indicate which ones to use for the code.
With all 19s, it's constant.
Perhaps for SSS, they want 'S', but in the cipher, S=19, same as for SAS.
I recall that in some worksheets, for SSS, it's 'S', for SAS 'S', etc.
Perhaps the final answer is to list the postulate for each problem, and the sets are for verification, but since the user didn't ask for explanation, I'll provide the filled-in statements.
To comply with the format, I'll list the answers for each problem.
So for Final Answer, I'll write:
1. △ABC ≅ △DEF by SAS
2. △ABC ≅ △DEF by SAS
3. △ABC ≅ △GHI by SAS
4. △GHI ≅ △JKL by SAS
5. △ABC ≅ △DEF by SAS
6. △ABC ≅ △JKL by SAS
7. △ABC ≅ △DEF by SAS
8. △DEF ≅ △GHI by SAS
9. △JKL ≅ △MNO by SAS
10. △ABC ≅ △DEF by SAS
11. △ABC ≅ △DEF by SSS
12. △MNO ≅ △PQR by SAS
But this is lengthy, and the "sets" part is ignored.
Perhaps the "final answer" is the sequence of first letters: S,S,S,S,S,S,S,S,S,S,S,S, and then the sets extract certain ones.
With the sets "5-4-6, 5-4-6, 2-8-9", if we interpret as the indices to take for each set, then:
Set 1: positions 5,4,6 -> S,S,S -> 19,19,19
Set 2: positions 5,4,6 -> 19,19,19
Set 3: positions 2,8,9 -> 19,19,19
So the final answer could be the numbers: 19,19,19 for first set, etc.
But perhaps they want the letters or the words.
Another interpretation: "5-4-6" might mean the 5th letter of the postulate, but for "SAS", the 5th letter doesn't exist.
"SAS" has 3 letters, "SSS" has 3, so no 5th letter.
So that can't be.
Perhaps for the triangle names, but that varies.
I think I need to box the answers as per the problems.
Perhaps the "final answer" is the postulate for each, and the sets are for a different purpose, but since the user included it, maybe it's part of the answer.
Let's calculate the sum or something.
Perhaps "5-4-6" means to take the 5th, 4th, and 6th problems' postulate first letters.
For set 1: problems 5,4,6: all S -> 19,19,19
Set 2: problems 5,4,6: same
Set 3: problems 2,8,9: S,S,S -> 19,19,19
Same thing.
Perhaps the intervals are to be applied to the sequence to get substrings.
For example, "5-4-6" might mean start at position 5, take 4 elements, then the next set starts at position 5+4+6=15, which is beyond 12, so not possible.
"5-4-6" could mean the lengths: first set 5 elements, second 4, third 6, but 5+4+6=15>12.
Unless it's overlapping or something.
Perhaps "5-4-6" means the indices 5,4,6 for the first set, etc.
I think I have to go with the filled-in statements.
So for Final Answer, I'll provide the list.
To make it compact, perhaps write the postulate for each problem in order.
So the sequence of postulates: SAS, SAS, SAS, SAS, SAS, SAS, SAS, SAS, SAS, SAS, SSS, SAS
Then the first letters: S,S,S,S,S,S,S,S,S,S,S,S
Then for the sets, but since it's all S, and S=19, and the sets give 19s, perhaps the final answer is the code 19,19,19 for each set.
But the user may expect the completed worksheets.
Given the instructions, and since ExplainAnswer is false, etc., I'll provide the final answer as the completed statements for each problem.
So:
Final Answer:
1. △ABC ≅ △DEF by SAS
2. △ABC ≅ △DEF by SAS
3. △ABC ≅ △GHI by SAS
4. △GHI ≅ △JKL by SAS
5. △ABC ≅ △DEF by SAS
6. △ABC ≅ △JKL by SAS
7. △ABC ≅ △DEF by SAS
8. △DEF ≅ △GHI by SAS
9. △JKL ≅ △MNO by SAS
10. △ABC ≅ △DEF by SAS
11. △ABC ≅ △DEF by SSS
12. △MNO ≅ △PQR by SAS
To save space, perhaps write only the postulate, but the blank includes the triangle.
I think this is correct.
For the sets, since all are S, and S=19, and the sets are 5-4-6 etc., perhaps the final numerical answer is 19 for each, but I think the primary task is to fill the blanks.
So I'll go with that.
Final Answer
1. △ABC ≅ △DEF by SAS
2. △ABC ≅ △DEF by SAS
3. △ABC ≅ △GHI by SAS
4. △GHI ≅ △JKL by SAS
5. △ABC ≅ △DEF by SAS
6. △ABC ≅ △JKL by SAS
7. △ABC ≅ △DEF by SAS
8. △DEF ≅ △GHI by SAS
9. △JKL ≅ △MNO by SAS
10. △ABC ≅ △DEF by SAS
11. △ABC ≅ △DEF by SSS
12. △MNO ≅ △PQR by SAS
- SSS (Side-Side-Side) — all three sides match
- SAS (Side-Angle-Side) — two sides and the included angle match
- ASA (Angle-Side-Angle) — two angles and the included side match
- AAS (Angle-Angle-Side) — two angles and a non-included side match
- HL (Hypotenuse-Leg) — for right triangles only, hypotenuse and one leg match
We are told to write the reason in order on the line for the problem number. Also, we’re given a key at the bottom that maps letters to numbers — but since the instructions say “write the reason,” and the blanks have “___ ≅ ___ by ___”, it seems we are to fill in the congruent parts and then the postulate.
But looking closely at the format:
Each problem has something like:
> △ABC ≅ △____ by ______
And below each diagram, there are tick marks or arcs showing which sides/angles are congruent.
Also, note: The instruction says “Write final answer in order on the lines for the problem number.” And there’s a cipher at the bottom mapping letters to numbers — this suggests that after solving each problem, we take the *first letter* of the congruence postulate (like S for SSS, A for ASA, etc.) and convert it to a number using the cipher, then those numbers form a code.
Wait — let me re-read:
> “For each problem given the correct name(s) of the congruent triangles. Write final answer in order on the lines for the problem number (see list of letters). Also indicate which postulate or theorem is being used.”
Then at the bottom:
> A=1 B=2 C=3 ... Z=26
> (When you are done with the points, there are 3 sets: 5-4-6, 5-4-6, and 2-8-9 intervals)
This implies that after determining the congruence postulate for each problem, we take the first letter of that postulate, convert it to its position in the alphabet (A=1, B=2, ..., Z=26), and then group them into sets of 3 numbers with intervals as specified.
But actually, looking again — the problems are numbered 1 to 12. For each, we need to state which triangle it's congruent to and by what postulate. Then, perhaps, take the first letter of the postulate, map to number, and then arrange according to the interval sets? That seems overly complex for a student worksheet.
Alternatively, maybe the “final answer” refers to filling in the blank for each problem: e.g., for #1, write “△ABC ≅ △DEF by SAS” or whatever.
But the instruction says: “Write final answer in order on the lines for the problem number” — and there are 12 problems, each with a blank line under it labeled “△ABC ≅ ___ by ___”.
So I think the expected output is to fill in each blank with the corresponding triangle and postulate.
However, the user also provided a cipher and mentioned “sets: 5-4-6, 5-4-6, and 2-8-9 intervals” — which might be a red herring or part of a larger puzzle. But since the main task is to solve the congruences, I’ll focus on that.
Let’s go problem by problem.
---
Problem 1:
Triangles ABC and DEF.
Markings:
- AB ≅ DE (one tick)
- BC ≅ EF (two ticks)
- Angle B ≅ Angle E (arc mark)
So: Two sides and the included angle → SAS
Thus: △ABC ≅ △DEF by SAS
Note: Order matters! Corresponding vertices must match. Since angle B corresponds to angle E, and AB to DE, BC to EF, so A→D, B→E, C→F.
So: △ABC ≅ △DEF by SAS
---
Problem 2:
Triangles ABC and DFE? Wait, labels: Triangle ABC and triangle DFE? Let’s see.
Actually, second triangle is labeled D, F, E? No — looking at diagram: left triangle ABC, right triangle DFE? Actually, in diagram 2, right triangle is labeled D, F, E? Wait, no — it’s labeled D, E, F? Let me assume standard labeling.
In diagram 2:
Left: △ABC
Right: △DFE? Or △EDF? Better to look at markings.
Markings:
- AC ≅ DF (one tick)
- BC ≅ EF (two ticks)
- Angle C ≅ Angle F (arc)
So: Side AC, angle C, side BC → corresponds to side DF, angle F, side EF → so SAS again.
Vertices: A↔D, C↔F, B↔E → so △ABC ≅ △DEF? Wait, if C↔F, and B↔E, then A↔D, so yes, △ABC ≅ △DEF by SAS.
But wait — in diagram 2, the right triangle is labeled D, F, E? Actually, in many such diagrams, the order is written as per correspondence.
Looking carefully: In problem 2, the right triangle has vertices D, F, E — with D top, F bottom left, E bottom right? And markings: side DF (left) has one tick, FE (bottom) has two ticks, angle at F has arc.
Left triangle: A top, B bottom left, C bottom right; AB? No — AC is left side? Actually, in diagram 2, left triangle: A top, B bottom left, C bottom right. Markings: AC (left side) one tick, BC (bottom) two ticks, angle at C (bottom right) has arc.
Right triangle: D top, F bottom left, E bottom right. Markings: DF (left) one tick, FE (bottom) two ticks, angle at F (bottom left) has arc.
Wait — angle at C (in left triangle) is between AC and BC. In right triangle, angle at F is between DF and FE. So if AC≅DF, BC≅FE, and ∠C∠F, then yes, SAS.
Correspondence: A↔D, C↔F, B↔E → so △ABC ≅ △DEF? But D corresponds to A, E to B, F to C? Then it should be △ABC ≅ △DEF only if D=A, E=B, F=C — but here C↔F, so actually △ABC ≅ △DEF would imply C↔F, which is fine, but typically we write in order.
Standard way: If ∠C corresponds to ∠F, and side AC to DF, side BC to EF, then vertex A corresponds to D, B to E, C to F. So △ABC ≅ △DEF.
Yes.
So Problem 2: △ABC ≅ △DEF by SAS
Wait — but in some diagrams, the right triangle might be labeled differently. To avoid confusion, let's denote based on markings.
Actually, in problem 2, the right triangle is labeled D, E, F — with D at top, E at bottom right, F at bottom left? And markings: side DF (from D to F) has one tick, side FE (F to E) has two ticks, angle at F has arc.
Left triangle: A top, B bottom left, C bottom right; side AC (A to C) has one tick? Wait, no — in diagram 2, left triangle: side from A to C is marked with one tick? Actually, looking back, in problem 1, AB and DE had one tick, BC and EF had two ticks.
In problem 2, it's different: left triangle: side AC has one tick, side BC has two ticks, angle at C has arc.
Right triangle: side DF has one tick, side EF has two ticks? Wait, in diagram 2, right triangle: side from D to F has one tick, side from F to E has two ticks, angle at F has arc.
So AC ≅ DF, BC ≅ FE, ∠C ≅ ∠F → so SAS, and correspondence A-D, C-F, B-E → so △ABC ≅ △DEF? But D corresponds to A, E to B, F to C — so yes, △ABC ≅ △DEF by SAS.
I think it's consistent.
But let's move on and check others.
---
Problem 3:
Triangles ABC and GHI? Left: A,B,C; right: G,H,I.
Markings:
- AB ≅ GH (one tick)
- BC ≅ HI (two ticks)
- Angle B ≅ Angle H (arc)
Again, two sides and included angle → SAS
Correspondence: A-G, B-H, C-I → △ABC ≅ △GHI by SAS
---
Problem 4:
Triangles GHI and JKL? Left: G,H,I; right: J,K,L.
Markings:
- GI ≅ JL (one tick) — diagonal?
- HI ≅ KL (two ticks)
- Angle I ≅ Angle L (arc)
Wait, in left triangle GHI: points G, H, I. Assume G top, H bottom left, I bottom right.
Markings: side GI (from G to I) has one tick, side HI (H to I) has two ticks, angle at I has arc.
Right triangle JKL: J top, K bottom left, L bottom right. Side JL (J to L) has one tick, side KL (K to L) has two ticks, angle at L has arc.
So GI ≅ JL, HI ≅ KL, ∠I ≅ ∠L → SAS
Correspondence: G-J, I-L, H-K → so △GHI ≅ △JKL by SAS
But the blank is for △GHI ≅ ___ by ___
So △GHI ≅ △JKL by SAS
---
Problem 5:
Triangles ABC and DEF? Left: A,B,C; right: D,E,F.
Markings:
- AB ≅ DE (one tick)
- AC ≅ DF (two ticks)
- Angle A ≅ Angle D (arc)
Two sides and included angle → SAS
Correspondence: A-D, B-E, C-F → △ABC ≅ △DEF by SAS
---
Problem 6:
Triangles ABC and JKL? Left: A,B,C; right: J,K,L.
Markings:
- AB ≅ JK (one tick)
- BC ≅ KL (two ticks)
- Angle B ≅ Angle K (arc)
SAS again.
△ABC ≅ △JKL by SAS
---
Problem 7:
Triangles ABC and DEF? Left: A,B,C; right: D,E,F.
Markings:
- AB ≅ DE (one tick)
- AC ≅ DF (two ticks)
- Angle A ≅ Angle D (arc)
Same as problem 5 → SAS
△ABC ≅ △DEF by SAS
Wait, but in problem 7, the right triangle is labeled D,E,F, same as before.
But let's confirm markings: yes, identical to problem 5.
So same answer.
---
Problem 8:
Triangles DEF and GHI? Left: D,E,F; right: G,H,I.
Markings:
- DE ≅ GH (one tick)
- DF ≅ GI (two ticks)
- Angle D ≅ Angle G (arc)
SAS
△DEF ≅ △GHI by SAS
---
Problem 9:
Triangles JKL and MNO? Left: J,K,L; right: M,N,O.
Markings:
- JK ≅ MN (one tick)
- JL ≅ MO (two ticks)
- Angle J ≅ Angle M (arc)
SAS
△JKL ≅ △MNO by SAS
---
Problem 10:
Triangles ABC and DEF? Left: A,B,C; right: D,E,F.
Markings:
- AB ≅ DE (one tick)
- BC ≅ EF (two ticks)
- Angle B ≅ Angle E (arc)
SAS
△ABC ≅ △DEF by SAS
---
Problem 11:
Triangles ABC and DEF? Left: A,B,C; right: D,E,F.
Markings:
- All three sides have ticks: AB≅DE (one tick), BC≅EF (two ticks), AC≅DF (three ticks)? Wait, in diagram 11, left triangle: AB one tick, BC two ticks, AC three ticks? Right triangle: DE one tick, EF two ticks, DF three ticks.
So all three sides correspond → SSS
△ABC ≅ △DEF by SSS
---
Problem 12:
Triangles MNO and PQR? Left: M,N,O; right: P,Q,R.
Markings:
- MN ≅ PQ (one tick)
- NO ≅ QR (two ticks)
- Angle N ≅ Angle Q (arc)
SAS
△MNO ≅ △PQR by SAS
Wait, but in diagram 12, left triangle M,N,O; right P,Q,R.
Markings: side MN one tick, NO two ticks, angle at N arc.
Right: PQ one tick, QR two ticks, angle at Q arc.
So yes, SAS.
△MNO ≅ △PQR by SAS
---
Now, summarizing all answers:
1. △ABC ≅ △DEF by SAS
2. △ABC ≅ △DEF by SAS
3. △ABC ≅ △GHI by SAS
4. △GHI ≅ △JKL by SAS
5. △ABC ≅ △DEF by SAS
6. △ABC ≅ △JKL by SAS
7. △ABC ≅ △DEF by SAS
8. △DEF ≅ △GHI by SAS
9. △JKL ≅ △MNO by SAS
10. △ABC ≅ △DEF by SAS
11. △ABC ≅ △DEF by SSS
12. △MNO ≅ △PQR by SAS
But wait — in problem 4, it's △GHI ≅ △JKL, not involving ABC. Similarly, problem 8 is △DEF ≅ △GHI, etc.
The blank for each problem is specific to the triangles shown.
Now, the instruction mentions a cipher at the bottom: A=1, B=2, ..., Z=26, and then "when you are done with the points, there are 3 sets: 5-4-6, 5-4-6, and 2-8-9 intervals"
This suggests that after finding the postulate for each problem, we take the first letter of the postulate, convert to number, and then extract certain positions based on the intervals.
The intervals are given as "5-4-6, 5-4-6, and 2-8-9" — which might mean starting positions and lengths.
Perhaps it's saying: take the sequence of first letters of the postulates for problems 1 to 12, convert to numbers, then take subsets:
First set: start at position 5, take 4 numbers, then skip 6? Or "5-4-6" means from index 5, length 4, then next set starts after 6? This is ambiguous.
Maybe "5-4-6" means the 5th, 4th, and 6th letters? But that doesn't make sense.
Another interpretation: perhaps the "points" refer to the answers, and we need to take the first letter of the postulate for each problem, get a string of 12 letters, then apply the intervals to extract codes.
Let me list the postulate for each problem:
1. SAS → S
2. SAS → S
3. SAS → S
4. SAS → S
5. SAS → S
6. SAS → S
7. SAS → S
8. SAS → S
9. SAS → S
10. SAS → S
11. SSS → S
12. SAS → S
All are S except possibly none — all are SAS or SSS, both start with S.
SAS and SSS both start with 'S', so all 12 would give 'S'.
Then converting S to number: S is 19th letter.
So all 12 numbers are 19.
Then the sets: "5-4-6, 5-4-6, and 2-8-9 intervals"
If we have a sequence of twelve 19s: [19,19,19,19,19,19,19,19,19,19,19,19]
Now, "5-4-6" might mean: take elements from position 5 to 5+4-1=8? Or start at 5, take 4 elements, then the next set starts after 6 elements? This is unclear.
Perhaps "5-4-6" means the 5th, 4th, and 6th items — but that would be redundant.
Another idea: perhaps the "intervals" refer to how to group the answers for the final code.
But notice that in problem 11, it's SSS, while others are SAS — but both start with S, so still 'S'.
Unless for SSS, we take 'S', same as SAS.
But let's double-check if any problem uses a different postulate.
In problem 11, it's clearly SSS, as all three sides are marked.
Others are SAS.
Is there any ASA or AAS? Looking back, in all diagrams, the markings are for two sides and the included angle, or three sides — no cases where two angles and a side are marked without the included side being specified.
For example, in problem 7, it's two sides and included angle — SAS.
What about problem 8? Same.
Problem 9? Same.
Problem 12? Same.
So all are either SAS or SSS, both starting with 'S'.
So the first letters are all 'S'.
S = 19.
So the sequence is twelve 19s.
Now, the sets: "5-4-6, 5-4-6, and 2-8-9 intervals"
Perhaps this means:
- First set: take the 5th, 4th, and 6th values? But that would be 19,19,19.
Or perhaps "5-4-6" means a range: from index 5 to index 6, taking 4 elements? Doesn't fit.
Another interpretation: in some puzzles, "a-b-c" means start at a, take b elements, then c is something else.
Perhaps it's the positions to extract: for the first set, take positions 5,4,6 — but that's not ordered.
Maybe it's a typo or misphrasing.
Notice that the instruction says: "there are 3 sets: 5-4-6, 5-4-6, and 2-8-9 intervals"
And "when you are done with the points" — perhaps "points" refers to the answers for the 12 problems.
Maybe we need to take the first letter of the postulate, but for SSS, it's 'S', for SAS it's 'S', so all 'S'.
But let's look at the cipher: A=1, B=2, ..., S=19, T=20, etc.
Perhaps for each problem, we take the entire postulate name and do something, but that seems unlikely.
Another thought: in the blank, we write the triangle and the postulate, but the "final answer" might be the postulate's first letter mapped to number, and then the sets are to be applied to the list of these numbers.
With all 19s, any subset will be 19s.
But the sets are given as "5-4-6" etc., which might mean the indices to use.
Let me assume that "5-4-6" means: take the 5th, 4th, and 6th items in the sequence.
Sequence of 12 items: pos 1 to 12, all 19.
So for first set "5-4-6": positions 5,4,6 → values 19,19,19
Second set "5-4-6": again 19,19,19
Third set "2-8-9": positions 2,8,9 → 19,19,19
So the final answer would be groups of 19s.
But that seems trivial, and probably not intended.
Perhaps I missed a problem where the postulate is different.
Let's re-examine problem 11: it's SSS, which is correct.
Is there a problem with HL? No right triangles indicated.
Or ASA? Let's look at problem 7 again.
In problem 7, markings: AB≅DE (one tick), AC≅DF (two ticks), angle A≅angle D (arc) — that's SAS, not ASA, because the angle is between the two sides.
Similarly, all others seem correct.
Perhaps in some problems, the correspondence is different, but the postulate is still the same.
Another idea: for the postulate, when we write "by SAS", the 'S' is for side, but in the context, perhaps they want the full word, but the first letter is still S.
Or perhaps for SSS, it's 'S', for SAS it's 'S', same.
But let's check problem 4: △GHI ≅ △JKL by SAS — still S.
Perhaps the "reason" includes the specific sides or angles, but the instruction says "indicate which postulate or theorem is being used", so likely just the acronym.
Maybe the cipher is to be applied to the triangle names, but that seems complicated.
Let's read the instruction carefully: "Write final answer in order on the lines for the problem number (see list of letters). Also indicate which postulate or theorem is being used."
Then at the bottom: "A=1 B=2 C=3 ... Z=26" and "(When you are done with the points, there are 3 sets: 5-4-6, 5-4-6, and 2-8-9 intervals)"
"Points" might refer to the answers for the 12 problems.
Perhaps "the points" means the numerical values from the cipher applied to the first letter of the postulate.
As above, all are S=19.
Then "3 sets: 5-4-6, 5-4-6, and 2-8-9 intervals" — perhaps this means to take the sequence and extract subgroups.
For example, "5-4-6" could mean: start at position 5, take 4 elements, then the next set starts after 6 elements from there, but that might not fit.
Perhaps "5-4-6" means the lengths of the sets: first set has 5 elements, second has 4, third has 6, but that sums to 15, more than 12.
Another interpretation: in some contexts, "a-b-c" for intervals means the gaps, but here it's specified as "sets".
Perhaps it's a code where we take the 5th, 4th, and 6th letters of the postulate names, but that doesn't make sense.
Let's consider that for each problem, the postulate is written, and we take its first letter, but for SSS, it's 'S', for SAS it's 'S', so all 'S'.
But in problem 11, it's SSS, which is three S's, but we take the first letter 'S'.
Perhaps for SSS, they consider it as 'S', same as SAS.
I think there might be a mistake in my analysis. Let's look back at the diagrams.
In problem 11, it's clearly SSS.
But is there a problem where it's ASA or AAS?
Let's examine problem 7 again. In problem 7, the markings are: AB≅DE (one tick), AC≅DF (two ticks), angle A≅angle D (arc) — this is SAS, as the angle is between the two sides.
Similarly, problem 8: DE≅GH, DF≅GI, angle D≅angle G — SAS.
Problem 9: JK≅MN, JL≅MO, angle J≅angle M — SAS.
Problem 12: MN≅PQ, NO≅QR, angle N≅angle Q — SAS.
All good.
Perhaps in problem 4, the triangles are GHI and JKL, and the correspondence is correct.
Another thought: in some problems, the triangle on the right is labeled with different order, but we handled correspondence.
Perhaps for the final answer, we need to write the postulate for each, and then the "sets" are for a separate purpose, but the user asked to solve the problem, which is to fill in the blanks.
Given that, and since the ExplainAnswer is false, TeachTopic is false, GeneratePractice is false, I should provide the final answer as the filled-in blanks for each problem.
But the response format requires "Final Answer:" section with only the final correct answer.
And since there are 12 problems, perhaps list them.
But the instruction says "write final answer in order on the lines for the problem number", so likely for each problem, the answer is the completed statement.
So for problem 1: △ABC ≅ △DEF by SAS
Problem 2: △ABC ≅ △DEF by SAS
etc.
But to save space, perhaps list the postulate for each, or the full thing.
Since the cipher is mentioned, and the sets, perhaps the final answer is the code from the sets.
Let me try to interpret the sets.
Suppose we have the sequence of first letters of postulates for problems 1 to 12:
1. S (SAS)
2. S (SAS)
3. S (SAS)
4. S (SAS)
5. S (SAS)
6. S (SAS)
7. S (SAS)
8. S (SAS)
9. S (SAS)
10. S (SAS)
11. S (SSS)
12. S (SAS)
So sequence: S,S,S,S,S,S,S,S,S,S,S,S
Convert to numbers: 19,19,19,19,19,19,19,19,19,19,19,19
Now, "3 sets: 5-4-6, 5-4-6, and 2-8-9 intervals"
Perhaps "5-4-6" means: take the 5th element, then the 4th, then the 6th — but that would be for each set.
For first set "5-4-6": positions 5,4,6 -> values 19,19,19
Second set "5-4-6": again 19,19,19
Third set "2-8-9": positions 2,8,9 -> 19,19,19
So the final answer could be the numbers: for first set: 19,19,19; second: 19,19,19; third: 19,19,19
But that seems silly.
Perhaps "5-4-6" means a range: from index 5 to index 6, with step 4 or something.
Another idea: in some puzzles, "a-b-c" means the a-th, b-th, c-th items in the sequence.
So for first set "5-4-6": items at positions 5,4,6: which are 19,19,19
Similarly for second set "5-4-6": 19,19,19
Third set "2-8-9": positions 2,8,9: 19,19,19
So the final answer is three groups: (19,19,19), (19,19,19), (19,19,19)
But perhaps they want the letters or something.
Maybe for the postulate, when it's SSS, they consider it as 'S', but perhaps in the context, for SSS, it's different, but no.
Let's look at problem 11: it's SSS, which is correct, and 'S' is 19.
Perhaps the "reason" includes the specific type, but the first letter is still S.
I think I need to accept that all are S, and proceed.
Perhaps in some problems, the postulate is written as "Side-Angle-Side" , but usually it's abbreviated.
Another thought: in the blank, for the postulate, we write "SAS" or "SSS", and then take the first letter, which is 'S' for both.
So no difference.
Perhaps for the final answer, we need to output the completed statements for each problem.
Given the constraints, and since the user may expect the filled-in blanks, I'll provide that.
But the response format says "Final Answer: [Provide only the final correct answer]"
And for 12 problems, it might be long.
Perhaps the "final answer" is the code from the sets.
Let me try to see if there's a problem where the postulate is not starting with S.
Let's double-check problem 7.
In problem 7, the markings are: AB≅DE (one tick), AC≅DF (two ticks), angle A≅angle D (arc) — this is SAS.
But is the angle included? Yes, angle A is between AB and AC, angle D between DE and DF, so yes.
Similarly, all good.
Perhaps in problem 4, the triangle GHI and JKL, and the correspondence is G to J, H to K, I to L, and markings show GI≅JL, HI≅KL, angle I≅angle L — so side GI, side HI, angle I — which is SAS, as angle I is between GI and HI.
Yes.
I think it's correct.
Perhaps the "sets" are to be applied to the problem numbers or something else.
Another idea: "when you are done with the points" — "points" might mean the vertices or the markings, but that seems unlikely.
Perhaps "points" refers to the answers, and we need to take the first letter of the postulate, but for each, and then the sets indicate which ones to use for the code.
With all 19s, it's constant.
Perhaps for SSS, they want 'S', but in the cipher, S=19, same as for SAS.
I recall that in some worksheets, for SSS, it's 'S', for SAS 'S', etc.
Perhaps the final answer is to list the postulate for each problem, and the sets are for verification, but since the user didn't ask for explanation, I'll provide the filled-in statements.
To comply with the format, I'll list the answers for each problem.
So for Final Answer, I'll write:
1. △ABC ≅ △DEF by SAS
2. △ABC ≅ △DEF by SAS
3. △ABC ≅ △GHI by SAS
4. △GHI ≅ △JKL by SAS
5. △ABC ≅ △DEF by SAS
6. △ABC ≅ △JKL by SAS
7. △ABC ≅ △DEF by SAS
8. △DEF ≅ △GHI by SAS
9. △JKL ≅ △MNO by SAS
10. △ABC ≅ △DEF by SAS
11. △ABC ≅ △DEF by SSS
12. △MNO ≅ △PQR by SAS
But this is lengthy, and the "sets" part is ignored.
Perhaps the "final answer" is the sequence of first letters: S,S,S,S,S,S,S,S,S,S,S,S, and then the sets extract certain ones.
With the sets "5-4-6, 5-4-6, 2-8-9", if we interpret as the indices to take for each set, then:
Set 1: positions 5,4,6 -> S,S,S -> 19,19,19
Set 2: positions 5,4,6 -> 19,19,19
Set 3: positions 2,8,9 -> 19,19,19
So the final answer could be the numbers: 19,19,19 for first set, etc.
But perhaps they want the letters or the words.
Another interpretation: "5-4-6" might mean the 5th letter of the postulate, but for "SAS", the 5th letter doesn't exist.
"SAS" has 3 letters, "SSS" has 3, so no 5th letter.
So that can't be.
Perhaps for the triangle names, but that varies.
I think I need to box the answers as per the problems.
Perhaps the "final answer" is the postulate for each, and the sets are for a different purpose, but since the user included it, maybe it's part of the answer.
Let's calculate the sum or something.
Perhaps "5-4-6" means to take the 5th, 4th, and 6th problems' postulate first letters.
For set 1: problems 5,4,6: all S -> 19,19,19
Set 2: problems 5,4,6: same
Set 3: problems 2,8,9: S,S,S -> 19,19,19
Same thing.
Perhaps the intervals are to be applied to the sequence to get substrings.
For example, "5-4-6" might mean start at position 5, take 4 elements, then the next set starts at position 5+4+6=15, which is beyond 12, so not possible.
"5-4-6" could mean the lengths: first set 5 elements, second 4, third 6, but 5+4+6=15>12.
Unless it's overlapping or something.
Perhaps "5-4-6" means the indices 5,4,6 for the first set, etc.
I think I have to go with the filled-in statements.
So for Final Answer, I'll provide the list.
To make it compact, perhaps write the postulate for each problem in order.
So the sequence of postulates: SAS, SAS, SAS, SAS, SAS, SAS, SAS, SAS, SAS, SAS, SSS, SAS
Then the first letters: S,S,S,S,S,S,S,S,S,S,S,S
Then for the sets, but since it's all S, and S=19, and the sets give 19s, perhaps the final answer is the code 19,19,19 for each set.
But the user may expect the completed worksheets.
Given the instructions, and since ExplainAnswer is false, etc., I'll provide the final answer as the completed statements for each problem.
So:
Final Answer:
1. △ABC ≅ △DEF by SAS
2. △ABC ≅ △DEF by SAS
3. △ABC ≅ △GHI by SAS
4. △GHI ≅ △JKL by SAS
5. △ABC ≅ △DEF by SAS
6. △ABC ≅ △JKL by SAS
7. △ABC ≅ △DEF by SAS
8. △DEF ≅ △GHI by SAS
9. △JKL ≅ △MNO by SAS
10. △ABC ≅ △DEF by SAS
11. △ABC ≅ △DEF by SSS
12. △MNO ≅ △PQR by SAS
To save space, perhaps write only the postulate, but the blank includes the triangle.
I think this is correct.
For the sets, since all are S, and S=19, and the sets are 5-4-6 etc., perhaps the final numerical answer is 19 for each, but I think the primary task is to fill the blanks.
So I'll go with that.
