part a: triangles gcb and epb

part b. sides cg and rp are parallel by definition of parallelogram.

angles cgb and e are congruent by being alternate interior angles of parallel lines cut by a transversal. angles gbc and ebp are congruent because they are vertical angles. by aa similarity, the triangles are similar.

part c. since the triangles are similar, the ratios of the lengths of corresponding sides are equal.

calculation of be:

gb/be = cb/bp

(400 ft)/be = 300/200

(400 ft)/be = 3/2

3be = 2 * 400 ft

3be = 800 ft

be = 800/3 ft

calculation of pe:

gc/pe = cb/bp

(350 ft)/pe = 300/200

(350 ft)/pe = 3/2

3pe = 2 * 350 ft

3pe = 700 ft

pe = 700/3 ft

the transitive property of equality.

step-by-step explanation:

the correct answer is:

the transitive property of equality.

explanation:

we know that  ∠bcd is congruent to  ∠pbc. we also know that  ∠pbc is congruent to  ∠bad.

we can substitute  ∠bad for  ∠pbc in the first angle congruence statement to give us:

∠bcd is congruent to  ∠bad.

algebraically, the transitive property states if a=b and b=c, then a=c. it basically allows us to substitute equal values. since that is what we did, this is the transitive property.
