उत्तर
In ΔADB and ΔADC,
∠ADB = ∠ADC ...(Since AD is perpendicular to BC)
AB = AC ...(given)
AD = AD ...(common side)
∴ ΔADB ≅ ΔADC ...(RHS congruence criterion)
⇒ BD = CD ...(cpct)

Which congruence criterion do you use in the following?
Given: AC = DF
AB = DE
BC = EF
So, ΔABC ≅ ΔDEF

In ΔABC, ∠A = 30°, ∠B = 40° and ∠C = 110°
In ΔPQR, ∠P = 30°, ∠Q = 40° and ∠R = 110°
A student says that ΔABC ≅ ΔPQR by AAA congruence criterion. Is he justified? Why or why not?
