Sachi Shah answered |
Given that AB = BP and AC = PC, we need to determine whether triangles ABC and PBC are congruent or not. Let's analyze the options one by one.
a) Yes, by ASA Congruence theorem they are congruent.
According to the ASA (Angle-Side-Angle) Congruence theorem, two triangles are congruent if they have two corresponding angles and the included side equal. However, in this case, we only know that the corresponding sides are equal, but we don't have any information about the angles. Therefore, we cannot conclude that the triangles are congruent using the ASA Congruence theorem.
b) Yes, by SAS Congruence theorem they are congruent.
According to the SAS (Side-Angle-Side) Congruence theorem, two triangles are congruent if they have two corresponding sides and the included angle equal. In this case, we have AB = BP and AC = PC, which are the corresponding sides, but we don't have any information about the included angle. Therefore, we cannot conclude that the triangles are congruent using the SAS Congruence theorem.
c) No, they are not congruent.
This option suggests that the triangles are not congruent without providing any reasoning. We cannot simply say that the triangles are not congruent without any valid justification.
d) Yes, by SSS Congruence theorem they are congruent.
According to the SSS (Side-Side-Side) Congruence theorem, two triangles are congruent if they have three corresponding sides equal. In this case, we have AB = BP and AC = PC, which are the corresponding sides. Additionally, we know that BC = BC since it is a common side. Therefore, all three corresponding sides of the triangles are equal, satisfying the condition for congruence by the SSS Congruence theorem. Hence, we can conclude that the triangles ABC and PBC are congruent.
In conclusion, the correct answer is option 'd'. The triangles ABC and PBC are congruent by the SSS Congruence theorem as all three corresponding sides are equal.
a) Yes, by ASA Congruence theorem they are congruent.
According to the ASA (Angle-Side-Angle) Congruence theorem, two triangles are congruent if they have two corresponding angles and the included side equal. However, in this case, we only know that the corresponding sides are equal, but we don't have any information about the angles.

EduRev Class 9 answered |
Explanation: For two equilateral triangles to be congruent, their corresponding sides must be equal in length. In congruent triangles, all corresponding sides and angles are identical. While equilateral triangles always have equal angles (60°), congruence is specifically determined by the equality of sides.

- b)If thee altitude from one vertex of a triangle bisects the opposite side, then the triangle may be isosceles
- c)If any two sides of a right triangle are respectively are equal to two sides of the other right triangle, then the two triangles are congruent
- d)Sides opposite equal angles may be unequal

Let's Tute answered |
Answer: A
Explanation:
Option A is correct because the Hypotenuse-Side (HS) congruence criterion states that if the hypotenuse and one side of one right triangle are equal to the hypotenuse and one side of another right triangle, the two triangles are congruent.
Option A is correct because the Hypotenuse-Side (HS) congruence criterion states that if the hypotenuse and one side of one right triangle are equal to the hypotenuse and one side of another right triangle, the two triangles are congruent.
Other options are incorrect:
- B: This statement is partially correct but not universally true for all cases, as the altitude bisecting the opposite side guarantees an isosceles triangle only under specific conditions.
- C: The congruence of two right triangles cannot be guaranteed if just any two sides are equal; the Hypotenuse-Leg or another criterion must be specified.
- D: If the angles are equal, the opposite sides must also be equal, making this statement incorrect.

**Explanation:**
An isosceles triangle is a triangle that has two sides of equal length. In an isosceles triangle, the angles opposite the equal sides are also equal.
Given that the vertical angle of the isosceles triangle is 40°, we can determine the measures of the other two angles.
Let the base angles of the isosceles triangle be x°. Since the triangle is isosceles, both base angles are equal.
**Step 1: Set up an equation:**
The sum of the angles in any triangle is always 180°. So, we can set up an equation to find the measure of the base angles.
x + x + 40° = 180°
Simplifying the equation:
2x + 40° = 180°
**Step 2: Solve for x:**
Subtract 40° from both sides of the equation:
2x = 180° - 40°
2x = 140°
Divide both sides of the equation by 2:
x = 70°
**Step 3: Find the measures of the other two angles:**
Since the base angles are equal, the measures of the other two angles in the isosceles triangle are both 70°.
Therefore, the correct answer is option C: 70°, 70°.

Pranjal Choudhary answered |
Definition of a Straight Angle:
A straight angle is an angle that measures exactly 180 degrees. It is formed when two lines are opposite each other and form a straight line.
Explanation:
- A zero angle measures 0 degrees and is formed when two lines coincide with each other.
- A right angle measures 90 degrees and is formed when two lines are perpendicular to each other.
- A reflex angle measures greater than 180 degrees but less than 360 degrees.
Why a Straight Angle is the Correct Answer:
- Since the angle in question measures exactly 180 degrees, it falls under the definition of a straight angle.
- A straight angle is a line and therefore has a straight direction, which is reflected in its measurement of 180 degrees.
Therefore, the correct answer is option C) a straight angle.

Imk Pathshala answered |
In a parallelogram, the diagonals are equal if and only if the parallelogram is a rectangle. This is because equal diagonals imply that the opposite angles are equal, and the only type of parallelogram where this happens is a rectangle.
In a rectangle, all angles are 90∘. Therefore, the measure of ∠PQR is: 90∘.

Understanding the Parallelogram Properties
In parallelogram ABCD, diagonals AC and BD are equal in length, which is a special case. This characteristic leads us to analyze the triangles ABD and ABC for congruence.
Triangles in Consideration
- Triangle ABD: Formed by vertices A, B, and D.
- Triangle ABC: Formed by vertices A, B, and C.
Key Properties of the Parallelogram
- Opposite Sides: In a parallelogram, opposite sides are equal (AB = CD and AD = BC).
- Diagonals: Given that AC = BD, we can further analyze the triangles.
Criteria for Congruence
To determine the congruence of triangles ABD and ABC, we can use the Side-Side-Side (SSS) criterion:
- AB = AB: Common side.
- AD = BC: Opposite sides of the parallelogram.
- AC = BD: Given diagonals are equal.
Conclusion on Congruence
By the SSS criterion, we find that:
- Both triangles have equal corresponding sides.
- Therefore, triangle ABD is congruent to triangle ABC by the SSS criterion.
Why SSS is Applicable Here
- Each side of triangle ABD corresponds to a side of triangle ABC, establishing congruence.
- The equal diagonals (AC = BD) strengthen this criterion by ensuring all sides are accounted for.
In summary, triangles ABD and ABC are congruent by the SSS criterion, confirming the correct answer is option 'B'.

When two triangles are congruent, the corresponding sides and angles are equal based on the order of the vertices in the congruence statement. Given that ΔPQR ≅ ΔABC, the correspondence between the vertices is as follows:
- P corresponds to A
- Q corresponds to B
- R corresponds to C
Using this correspondence:
- Side PQ corresponds to Side AB
- Side QR corresponds to Side BC
- Side PR corresponds to Side AC
Therefore:
- PQ = AB
- QR = BC
- PR = AC
This matches Option B precisely.

EduRev Class 9 answered |
as QT = TR and QP = PR
then QT/QP = TR/PR
so PT would be internal bisector of ∠QPR
and as QT = TR,
hence , T is the bisector of QTR as well.
Therefore, both A and B
then QT/QP = TR/PR
so PT would be internal bisector of ∠QPR
and as QT = TR,
hence , T is the bisector of QTR as well.
Therefore, both A and B

EduRev Class 9 answered |
We are asked to prove that triangle ABD is congruent to triangle PQM.
Step 1: Compare given information
- AB = PQ (given)
- BC = QR (given)
- AD = PM (given, both are medians)
Step 2: Use property of medians
- Since AD is the median of triangle ABC, point D is the midpoint of BC.
So BD = DC = half of BC. - Since PM is the median of triangle PQR, point M is the midpoint of QR.
So QM = MR = half of QR.
Step 3: Use the equality of sides
- From given, BC = QR.
- Therefore, half of BC = half of QR.
- This means BD = QM.
Step 4: Now check corresponding sides of triangles ABD and PQM
- In triangle ABD and triangle PQM:
- AB = PQ (given)
- BD = QM (proved using medians and BC = QR)
- AD = PM (given)
So, all three sides of triangle ABD are equal to the corresponding three sides of triangle PQM.
Step 5: Congruence criterion
- When three sides of one triangle are equal to the three sides of another triangle, the two triangles are congruent by the SSS (Side-Side-Side) criterion.
Final Answer: The correct option is b) SSS.

Coachify answered |
In triangle ABC, the side lengths are AB = 3.5 cm, BC = 7.1 cm, and AC = 5 cm. In triangle RPQ, the corresponding side lengths are RP = 3.5 cm, PQ = 7.1 cm, and RQ = 5 cm. Since each side of triangle ABC is equal to the corresponding side of triangle RPQ, the triangles satisfy the Side-Side-Side (SSS) congruence criterion. Therefore, triangle ABC is congruent to triangle RPQ.
