Question

In the figure, ∆BAT ≅ ∆CAT. Which statement is NOT true by CPCTC?

Answer 1

∆BAT=∆CAT

• AB=AC

True

• <BAT=<CAT

True

• SB=ST

False

SB=SC not ST

Answer 2

• Option C

Explanation:

Since ΔBAT ≅ ΔCAT, the statements that are true by CPCTC:

• AB ≅ AC
• ∠BAT ≅ ∠CAT
• ∠BTA ≅ ∠CTA

The statement that is not true is:

• SB ≅ ST, these are not corresponding parts of the given triangles
