Question
Explain, why ΔABC ≅ ΔFED.
Advertisements
Solution
Given that, ∠ABC = ∠FED (1)
∠BAC = ∠EFD (2)
The two angles of ΔABC are equal to the two respective angles of ΔFED. Also, the sum of all interior angles of a triangle is 180º. Therefore, third angle of both triangles will also be equal in measure.
∠BCA = ∠EDF (3)
Also, given that, BC = ED (4)
By using equation (1), (3), and (4), we obtain
ΔABC ≅ ΔFED (ASA criterion)
