Answer:

Option B is correct.


\triangle RST \cong \triangle TUR

Explanation:

Given: RSTU is a parallelogram.

By definition of parallelogram, two pairs of opposite sides are congruent in length.


TU \cong RS and
TS \cong RU

In triangle RST and triangle TUR


RS \cong TU [Side]


TS \cong RU [Side]


RT \cong RT [Common side]

SSS(Side-Side-Side) postulates states that if three sides of one triangle are congruent to three sides of other triangle, then the triangles are congruent.

then, by SSS postulates we have;


\triangle RST \cong \triangle TUR
