Question

Given the statement ΔQRS ≅ ΔXYZ, list all congruent parts you can conclude about the two triangles. Explain.

Answer 1

Side QR is congruent to Side XY.

Side RS is congruent to Side YZ.

Side SQ is congruent to Side ZX.

Angle Q is congruent to Angle X.

Angle R is congruent to Angle Y.

Angle S is congruent to Angle Z.

Explanation:

Side QR is congruent to Side XY because triangle QRS is congruent to triangle XYZ and each point of a triangle is in corresponding order with a point of the other triangle. For example, Q matches up with X since they both are listed first in their respective sequence.
