Part B – Short-answer

1 a 60 b 30 c 20 d 50
2 a DC = CB , AB = DE, AC = CE SSS
b A = C = 90 and AD = CD (given),
BD is common,  ABD  CBD (RHS)

4 a 90 b 5 c
5 a & b theorem 3
c 180-(x+y) d , & ,

Part C – Extended-response

1 a Common angle P
and are equal due to alternate segment theorem
and are congruent as there is a common angle P and the
two angles previously mentioned due to alternate segment theorem. Two
common angles therefore the third is the same. Thus two triangles are
congruent via AAA proof.
Use similar triangles to prove lengths

i.e
b PC =
c 17.5
