Question

If triangle MNO is congruent to triangle PQR , which of the following can you NOT conclude as being true.. a- line MN is congruent to like PR

b- angle M is congruent to angle P
c- line NO is congruent to line QR
d- angle N is congruent to angle Q

Answer 1

a- line MN is congruent to line PR.

Explanation:

It is given Δ MNO ≅PQR.

In congruent triangles corresponding sides and corresponding angles are same .

Hence

< M≅<P ,

Line NO= Line QR.

<N≅<Q.

Line MN≅Line PQ.

Among the given options options b,c,d are correct except option a.

We can NOT conclude as being true.. a- line MN is congruent to line PR

Answer 2

The correct answer is:

A) line MN is congruent to line PR.

Explanation:

We are told that MNO is congruent to PQR. Using this congruence statement, corresponding parts of the triangles are congruent. This means that line MN would be congruent to line PQ, not line PR.
