Answer:

The triangles are congruent as they both have sides lengths (15, 20, 25)

a = 25

b = 20

c = 15

d = 20

e = 20

f = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

For the first triangle, using Pythagorean Theorem, the length of the missing side is:


\sqrt[]{15^2+20^2}=25

For the second triangle, the length of the missing side is:


\sqrt[]{25^2-20^2}=15

These triangles are congruent as they both have sides lengths (15, 20, 25)
