Final answer:

To construct an angle congruent to another angle, you can use two sides of the given angle and an angle included between these two sides.

Step-by-step explanation:

To construct ∠PQR congruent to ∠ABC, you can use the combination of two sides of ∠ABC and an angle included between these two sides. Here are the steps:

  1. Draw a line segment PQ that is congruent to side AB of ∠ABC.
  2. Select a point P on line segment PQ.
  3. Using a compass, draw an arc of the same length as side AC of ∠ABC to intersect the line segment PQ at point R.
  4. Draw a line segment PR.
  5. The angle ∠PQR is congruent to ∠ABC.
