The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the length of side XZ in triangle XYZ, given that triangle XYZ is congruent to triangle ABC. ### Step-by-step Solution: 1. **Identify the Angles in Both Triangles**: - In triangle XYZ: - Angle X = 45° - Angle Y = 75° - Angle Z can be calculated as: \[ \text{Angle Z} = 180° - \text{Angle X} - \text{Angle Y} = 180° - 45° - 75° = 60° \] - In triangle ABC: - Angle A = 45° - Angle C = 60° - Angle B can be calculated as: \[ \text{Angle B} = 180° - \text{Angle A} - \text{Angle C} = 180° - 45° - 60° = 75° \] 2. **Establish the Congruence**: - Since triangle XYZ is congruent to triangle ABC (∆XYZ ≅ ∆ABC), the corresponding angles and sides are equal. - Therefore, we have: - Angle X corresponds to Angle A - Angle Y corresponds to Angle B - Angle Z corresponds to Angle C 3. **Use Corresponding Parts of Congruent Triangles (CPCT)**: - According to the properties of congruent triangles, the corresponding sides are equal. - We know that AC = 6 cm in triangle ABC. - Thus, by CPCT: \[ XZ = AC \] - Therefore: \[ XZ = 6 \text{ cm} \] 4. **Final Answer**: - The length of side XZ is 6 cm. ### Summary: Thus, the length of XZ in triangle XYZ is **6 cm**. ---
