Answer: d. ∠u ≅ ∠v


Explanation:

We know that when two triangles are congruent then their corresponding parts are congruent.

This property is known as CPCTC.

Given: triangle stu is congruent to triangle vwx

Thus, all corresponding sides are congruent

a.segment st ≅ segment vw and d. segment su ≅ segment vx , both are correct.

All corresponding angles are congruent,thus

∠s ≅ ∠v

∠t ≅ ∠w

∠u ≅ ∠x

Thus, d is the option which is not true.
