Answer:

b.Symmetric property of congruence.

Explanation:

We are given that

ST=QR

QR=ST

We have to find the name of the property of equality or congruence that justifies going from the firs statement to the second statement.

When AB=CD

CD=AB

It is called symmetric property of congruence.

Therefore, given property is symmetric property of equality that justifies going form the first statement to the second statement.

Answer:b.Symmetric property of congruence.
