# 3. In Fig 7.27, measures of some parts are indicated. By applying ASA congruence rule, state which pairs triangles are congruent. In case of congruence, write the result in symoblic form.

i) in $\Delta ABC$ and $\Delta FED$

AB = FE = 3.5 cm

$\angle A = \angle F = 40 ^0$

$\angle B = \angle E = 60^0$

So by ASA congruency rule, both triangles are congruent.i.e.

$\Delta ABC \cong \Delta FED$

ii) in $\Delta PQR$ and $\Delta FDE$

$\angle Q= \angle D= 90 ^0$

$\angle R= \angle E = 50^0$

But,

$\overline {EF}\neq\overline {RP}$

So, given triangles are not congruent.

iii) in $\Delta RPQ$ and $\Delta LMN$

RQ = LN = 6 cm

$\angle R = \angle L = 60 ^0$

$\angle Q= \angle N= 30^0$

So by ASA congruency rule, both triangles are congruent.i.e.

$\Delta RPQ\cong \Delta LMN$.

iv) in $\Delta ADB$ and $\Delta BCA$

AB = BA (common side)

$\angle CAB = \angle DBA= 30 ^0$

$\angle D= \angle C=180^0-30^0-30^0-45^0=75^0$

So by ASA congruency rule, both triangles are congruent.i.e.

$\Delta ADB \cong \Delta BCA$
