Question
In triangles ABC and PQR three equality relations between some parts are as follows:
AB = QP, ∠B = ∠P and BC = PR
State which of the congruence conditions applies:
Options
SAS
ASA
SSS
RHS

Solution
In Δ ABC and Δ PQR
It is given that
AB = QP
∠B = ∠P
BC = PR
Since two sides and an angle are equal so it obeys SAS
Hence (a) SAS
