the image:
The image shows a coordinate plane with two triangles, ( \triangle ABC ) and ( \triangle QRS ), sharing a common vertex ( C ). Here are the details:

Vertices and Labels:
Triangle ( \triangle ABC ):
Vertex ( A ) is located at the bottom left.
Vertex ( B ) is at the top left.
Vertex ( C ) is at the center, shared with ( \triangle QRS ).
Triangle ( \triangle QRS ):
Vertex ( Q ) is at the bottom center.
Vertex ( R ) is at the top right.
Vertex ( S ) is at the bottom right.
Shared Side:
Both triangles share the side ( \overline{CQ} ).
Measurements:
The side ( \overline{BC} ) of ( \triangle ABC ) is labeled as 3 inches.
The side ( \overline{RS} ) of ( \triangle QRS ) is also labeled as 3 inches.
Grid and Units:
The coordinate plane is divided into a grid where each square represents one unit of measurement.
The triangles are drawn with orange lines, making them stand out against the grid. The shared side ( \overline{CQ} ) connects the two triangles, and the given measurements help in understanding the proportions and congruence between the triangles.

To prove that triangles \( \triangle ABC \) and \( \triangle QRS \) are congruent using the ASA (Angle-Side-Angle) Congruence Theorem, we need the following pieces of information:

  1. We already have \( \angle A \cong \angle Q \) and the lengths of \( \overline{BC} \) and \( \overline{RS} \) are given as equal (3 inches). This serves as the side between the two angles.

  2. We need to establish another pair of angles, specifically \( \angle C \) and \( \angle S \). If we can show that \( \angle C \cong \angle S \), we can proceed with the ASA proof.

Thus, the necessary information to prove \( \triangle ABC \cong \triangle QRS \) by the ASA Congruence Theorem would be to confirm:

  • \( \angle C \cong \angle S \)

With this information, we have two pairs of angles ( \( \angle A \cong \angle Q \) and \( \angle C \cong \angle S \) ) and one included side ( \( \overline{BC} \cong \overline{RS} \)), satisfying the ASA condition for triangle congruence.
