Question
For the given pair of triangles state the criterion that can be used to determine the congruency?
Advertisements
Solution
From the figure hypotenuse and one side are equal in both the triangles
RHS congruency criterion is used ...(∵ Considering ∆ABC and ∆BAD)
∠A = ∠B = 90°
AD = BC
AB = AB ...(common)
∴ AC = BD ...(hypotenuse)
