Chapter 4: Q1. (page 160)

In the following figure, the two-triangle shown are congruent. Then complete the following statement.

ΔSTW≅Δ___

Short Answer

Expert verified

The statement isΔSTW≅ΔRPQ.

Step by step solution

01

Step 1. Apply the concept of congruent triangles.

Two triangles are said to be congruent if all three corresponding sides are equal and all the three corresponding angles are equal in measure. These triangles can be slid, rotated, flipped, and turned to be looked identical.

02

Step 2. Check the figure.

Consider the figure.

Here the corresponding parts ofΔSTW andΔRPQ are congruent.

03

Step 3. Step description.

Since the corresponding parts ofΔSTW and ΔRPQare congruent thus ΔSTW≅ΔRPQ.

Therefore, the statement is ΔSTW≅ΔRPQ.
