A student solved the following problem and made an error: Triangles ABC and DEF. Angles A and F are congruent and measure 135 degrees. Coordinates for the vertices are at A 0, 2 and B 2, 4 and C 0, 0 and D 2, 0 and E 4, 4 and F 4, 2. Line 1 Segment AC equals 2. Segment FE equals 2. Segment AC is congruent to segment FE Line 2 ∠A ≅ ∠F Line 3 Length of segment AB. A (0, 2) B (2, 4) d equals square root of quantity x sub 2 minus x sub 1 squared plus quantity y sub 2 minus y sub 1 squared, d equals square root of quantity 0 minus 2 all squared plus quantity 2 minus 4 all squared, d equals square root of negative 2 squared plus negative 2 squared, d equals square root of 4 plus 4, d equals square root of 8 segment AB = 2.83 Line 4 Length of segment DE. D (2, 0) E (4, 4) d equals square root of quantity x sub 2 minus x sub 1 squared plus quantity y sub 2 minus y sub squared, d equals square root of quantity 2 minus 4 all squared plus quantity 0 minus 4 all squared, d equals square root of negative 2 squared plus negative 4 squared, d equals square root of 4 plus 16, then d equals square root of 20 segment DE = 4.47 Line 5 segment AB is congruent with segment DE Line 6 triangle ABC is congruent with triangle FDEby SAS In which line did the student make the first mistake?
