In triangles ABC and PQR, A =
Q and
B =
R. Which side of
PQR should be equal to side BC of
ABC so that the two triangles are congruent? Give a reason for your answer.
In triangles ABC and PQR
A =
Q and
B =
R.
By congruency, corresponding angles and sides must be equal to each other in both triangles.
By the AAS criterion of congruence BC = PR.
Then ABC
QRP
Hence, side BC should be equal to side PR.
