Triangle Proof

disturbedpanda · #1 $Old$ 11-09-2008, 07:01 PM

Could anyone help me with this 3D figure proof?

I don't care if its a paragraph proof, a flow proof, or a 2 column proof, whatever floats your boat =D

Thanks,
DisturbedPanda

You also know that QC is shared by both triangles so that QC =QC.
Therefore, you can conclude side angle side.
