True/False: If segment AB is congruent to BC, then are points A,B,C collinear?

Given: segment AB ic congruent to segment BC


Conjecture: points A,B, C are collinear





Is this a true conjecture or a false one? please explain your answer.





Thanks!True/False: If segment AB is congruent to BC, then are points A,B,C collinear?
its impossible to know, AB and BC might be the same length but that doesn't mean its a straight line, it doesn't mean it isn't a straight line either. so because it can't be proven, the answer is false.
