Solution
In ΔABC ∠B = 60° and ∠C = 70°
∴ ∠A = 180° – (60° + 70°)
= 180° – 130°
= 50°
In ΔDEF ∠E = 70° and ∠D = 60°
∠F = 180° – (70° + 60°)
= 180° – 130°
= 50°
∠A = ∠F = 50°
∠B = ∠D = 60°
∠C = ∠E = 70°
By AAA congruency
ΔABC ≅ ΔFDE
or
∠B = ∠D = 60°
∠C = ∠E = 70°
AB = FE
By ASA congruency
ΔABC ≅ ΔFDE
