By SAS test
∆ XYZ ≅ ∆LMN


By ASA test
∆PRQ ≅ ∆STU


By hypotenuse side test
∆LMN ≅ ∆PTR

Solution & Step-by-Step Answer:
From the information shown in the figure, In ∆ABC and ∆PQR, ∠ABC ≅ ∠PQR seg BC ≅ seg QR ∠ACB ≅ ∠PRQ ∴ ∆ABC ≅ ∆PQR [ASA test] ∴ ∠BAC ≅ ∠QPR [Corresponding angles of congruent triangles] seg AB ≅ segPQ and segAC ≅ seg PR [Corresponding sides of congruent triangles]


From the information shown in the figure,
In ∆PTQ and ∆STR,
seg PT ≅ seg ST
∠PTQ ≅ ∠STR [Vertically opposite angles]
seg TQ ≅ seg TR
∴ ∆PTQ ≅ ∆STR [SAS test]
∴ ∠TPQ ≅ ∠TSR and ∠TQP ≅ ∠TRS [Corresponding angles of congruent triangles]
seg PQ ≅ seg SR [Corresponding sides of congruent triangles]

Question 3 Maharashtra Board Solution
From the information shown in the figure, state the test assuring the congruence of ∆ABC and ∆PQR. Write the remaining congruent parts of the triangles.
Solution & Step-by-Step Answer:
In ∆BAC and ∆PQR, seg BA ≅ seg PQ seg BC ≅ seg PR ∠BAC ≅ ∠PQR = 90° [Given] ∴ ∆BAC ≅ ∆PQR [Hypotenuse side test] ∴ seg AC ≅ seg QR [c.s.c.t.] ∠ABC ≅ ∠QPR and ∠ACB ≅ ∠QRP [c.a.c.t.]
Question 4 Maharashtra Board Solution
As shown in the adjoining figure, in ∆LMN and ∆PNM, LM = PN, LN = PM. Write the test which assures the congruence of the two triangles. Write their remaining congruent parts.
Solution & Step-by-Step Answer:
In ∆LMN and ∆PNM, seg LM ≅ seg PN seg LN ≅ seg PM [Given] seg MN ≅ seg NM [Common side] ∴ ∆LMN ≅ ∆PNM [SSS test] ∴ ∠LMN ≅ ∠PNM, ∴ ∠MLN ≅ ∠NPM, and ∠LNM ≅ ∠PMN [c.a.c.t.]
Question 5 Maharashtra Board Solution
In the adjoining figure, seg AB ≅ seg CB and seg AD ≅ seg CD. Prove that ∆ABD ≅ ∆CBD.
Solution & Step-by-Step Answer:
proof: In ∆ABD and ∆CBD, seg AB ≅ seg CB seg AD ≅ seg CD [Given] seg BD ≅ seg BD [Common side] ∴ ∆ABD ≅ ∆CBD [SSS test]

Question 6. In the adjoining figure, ZP ≅ ZR, seg PQ ≅ seg RQ. Prove that APQT ≅ ARQS. Proof: In ∆PQT and ∆RQS, ∠P ≅ ∠R seg PQ ≅ seg RQ [Given] ∠Q ≅ ∠Q [Common angle] ∴ ∆PQT ≅ ∆RQS [ASA test]
