(a) Given: AC = DF
AB = DE
BC = EF
(b) Given: ZX = RP

(d) Given: EB = DB AE
= BC
A= C = 90°
Answer :
(a) SSS, as the sides of ΔABC are equal to the sides of ΔDEF.
(b) SAS, as two sides and the angle included between these sides of ΔPQR are equal to two sides and the angle included between
these sides of ΔXYZ.
(c) ASA, as two angles and the side included between these angles of ΔLMN are equal to two angles and the side included between
these angles of ΔGFH.
(d) RHS, as in the given two right-angled triangles, one side and the hypotenuse are respectively equal.
Q2 :
You want to show that ΔART ΔPEN,
(a) If you have to use SSS criterion, then you need to show
(i) AR = (ii) RT = (iii) AT =
(b) If it is given that T= N and you are to use SAS criterion, you need to have

(a)
(i) AR = PE
(ii) RT = EN
(iii) AT = PN
(b)
(i) RT = EN
(ii) PN = AT
(c)
Q3 :
You have to show that ΔAMP AMQ.
In the following proof, supply the missing reasons.
Answer :
(i) Given
(ii) Given
(iii) Common
(iv) SAS, as the two sides and the angle included between these sides of ΔAMP are equal to two sides and the angle included
between these sides of ΔAMQ.
Q4 :
In ΔABC, A = 30°, B = 40° and C = 110°
A student says that ΔABC ΔPQR by AAA congruence criterion. Is he justified? Why or why not?

www.ncrtsolutions.in
Answer :
No. This property represents that these triangles have their respective angles of equal measure. However, this gives no information
about their sides. The sides of these triangles have a ratio somewhat different than 1:1. Therefore, AAA property does not prove the
two triangles congruent.
Q5 :
In the figure, the two triangles are congruent.
Answer :
It can be observed that,
RAT = WON
ART = OWN
AR = OW
Q6 :
Complete the congruence statement:
ΔBCA ?
ΔQRS ?
Answer :
Given that, BC = BT
TA = CA
BA is common.
Similarly, PQ = RS
TQ = QS PT
= RQ

Q7 :
In a squared sheet, draw two triangles of equal areas such that
(i) The triangles are congruent.
Answer :
(i)
Here, ΔABC and ΔPQR have the same area and are congruent to each other also. Also, the perimeter of both the triangles will be
the same.
(ii)
Here, the two triangles have the same height and base. Thus, their areas are equal. However, these triangles are not congruent to
each other. Also, the perimeter of both the triangles will not be the same.
Q8 :
If ΔABC and ΔPQR are to be congruent, name one additional pair of corresponding parts. What criterion did you use?
Answer :
BC = QR

Q9 :
Explain, why
ΔABC ΔFED
Answer :
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)
