Given the parameters in the diagrams, we have;
4. ∆ABC ≈ ∆DEF by ASA
5. UW ≈ XZ by CPCTC
6. QR ≈ TR by CPCTC
How can the relationship between the triangles be proven?
4. The given parameters are;
<B = <E = 90°
AB = DE Definition of congruency
<A = <D Definition of congruency
Therefore;
- ∆ABC ≈ ∆DEF by Angle-Side-Angle, ASA, congruency postulate
5. Given;
XY is perpendicular to WZ
UV is perpendicular to WZ
VW = YZ
<Z = <W
Therefore;
∆UVW ≈ ∆XYZ by Angle-Side-Angle, ASA, congruency postulate
Which gives;
- UW is congruent to XZ, UW ≈ XZ, by Corresponding Parts of Congruent Triangles are Congruent, CPCTC
6. Given;
PQ is perpendicular to QT
ST is perpendicular to QT
PQ ≈ ST
From the diagram, we have;
<SRR ≈ <PRQ by vertical angles theorem;
Therefore;
∆QRP ≈ ∆TRS by Side-Angle-Angle, SAA, congruency postulate
Which gives;
- QR ≈ TR by Corresponding Parts of Congruent Triangles are Congruent, CPCTC
