I’m pretty sure the answer would be A,because if her bill is $97 and it’s $0.10 every txt she sends then and she wants to spend less then $113 then if you take $113 and subtract it by 97 it gives you 16 then if you divided 16/ 0.10 then it gives you 160 so she is sending atleast 160 txt.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Geometric proofs can be used to show that the two triangles are congruent using ASA, SAS and SSS.

However, there is no such thing as SSA in geometry because an angle and two sides can not show congruence of triangles. This is so because the angle is not an included angle.
