Answer:
Explanation:
30. Given: rectangles QRST and RKST
Prove: ΔQSK is isosceles
An isosceles triangle is a triangle which has two sides and two angles to be equal.
Thus,
From rectangle QRST, the diagonals of rectangles are similar.
i.e RT ≅ QS (diagonal property)
Also, RT ≅ SK (opposite sides of rectangle RKST)
Thus,
RT ≅ QS ≅ SK
Therefore,
ΔQSK is an isosceles triangle.
31. Given: Rectangles QRST, RKST and JQST
Prove: JT ≅ KS
From rectangle QRST, the diagonals of rectangles are similar.
i.e RT ≅ QS (diagonal property)
But,
JT // QS and RT // KS
Thus,
JT ≅ QS (opposite sides of rectangle JQST)
also,
RT ≅ KS (opposite sides of rectangle RKST)
So that,
JT ≅ QS ≅ RT ≅ KS
Therefore,
JT ≅ KS
