Answer: C.
\overline{BC}=\overline{QR}

Explanation:

In the given figure we have two triangles ΔABC and ΔPQR

Given:
\overline{AC}=\overline{PR}


\overline{AB}=\overline{PQ}

SSS postulate of congruence says that if three sides of a triangle are congruent or equal to corresponding three sides of other triangle then the triangles must be congruent.

Therefore, we need
\overline{BC}=\overline{QR} to show that ΔABC and ΔPQR are congruent by SSS postulate of congruence.
