Question 71.


All the following are criteria for measuring the congruency of triangles except the _____.


  1.     SAS 
  2.     SSS
  3.     ASA 
  4.     AAA 
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option D. -> AAA 
:
D

The criteria for congruence of triangles are SSS criterion, SAS criterion, ASA criterion and RHS criterion.


AAA is not a criterion for congruence as it does not ensure the equality of sides of the two triangles.


Note: AAA is a criterion for 'Similarity' of triangles.


Question 72.


Two triangles are congruent if they have


  1.     Same name
  2.     Equal measures
  3.     Same shape
  4.     Same direction
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> Equal measures
:
B and C

Two triangles(or any geometric figures) are congruent if they have same shape and equal measures (i.e., all corresponding sides and angles are equal). This is because two triangles are said to be congruent only if they coincide when superimposed which is possible only if all their corresponding angles and sides are equal.


Question 73.


If ΔABCΔPQR, then AB is equal to ___.


 


  1.     PR
  2.     QR
  3.     PQ
  4.     Both PR and QR
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> PQ
:
C

Since  ΔABCΔPQR,
corresponding sides of congruent triangles will be equal.
Hence, AB = PQ.


Question 74.


In the figure, the two triangles are congruent. The corresponding parts are marked. Complete the congruent statement ΔRAT≅  [1 MARK]

 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> PQ
:
Solution: 1 Mark
In the figure, the two triangles are congruent.
So, the corresponding congruent parts are:

∠A=∠O,∠R=∠W,∠T=∠N
Side AT = Side ON, Side AR = Side OW
∴ We can write, ΔRAT≅ΔWON 
Question 75.


If ΔABC and ΔPQR are to be congruent, name one additional pair of corresponding parts. Which criterion did you use? [2 MARKS]
If ΔABC And ΔPQR Are To Be Congruent, Name One Additional ...

Answer: Option C. -> PQ
:
Naming: 1 Mark
Criterion: 1 Mark
Given, ΔABC and ΔPQR are congruent with,
∠B=∠Q=90∘
∠C=∠R
For ΔABC and ΔPQR to be congruent, the side in between the equal angles needs to be equal.
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯BC=¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯QR
⇒ΔABC and ΔPQR are congruent by ASA congruence rule.
Then one additional pair is BC  = QR.
Question 76.

 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> PQ
:

Steps: 1 Mark
Proof: 1 Mark
In ΔADC and ΔABC
AD=AB   [Given]
∠ADC=∠ABC=90o   [Given]
AC=CA   [common]
Hence, ΔADC≅ΔABC  [By RHS congruence condition]


Question 78.


Which congruence criterion is used in the following?
Given: ∠MLN=∠FGH,∠NML=∠HFG,ML=FG
So ΔLMN≅ΔGFH  [2 MARKS]
Which Congruence Criterion Is Used In The Following?Given: â...


 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> PQ
:
Steps: 1 Mark
Proof: 1 Mark
It is given that,
∠MLN=∠FGH,
∠NML=∠HFG,
ML=FG.
⇒ The two angles and an included  side  of one  triangle are equal to the corresponding angles and an included side of other triangles.
∴ΔLMN≅ΔGFH    [By ASA congruence criterion]
