Given, ΔJKM

Explain how to construct a triangle that is congruent to ΔJKM.

Short Answer

Expert verified

By SSScongruency, ΔJKM≅ΔPQR.

Step by step solution

01

Step 1. Given information.

A triangle ΔJKM is given as shown below,

02

Step 2. Concept used.

According to SSS congruence criteria,

if all the sides of one triangle are congruent to the corresponding sides of other triangle,

then the two triangles are said to be congruent.

03

Step 3. Construct a triangle.

Construct ΔPQRsuch that,

PQ≅MJ, PR≅MK, QR≅JK.

So,

ΔJKM≅ΔPQR (by SSScongruence criteria)

Therefore, by SSScongruency ΔJKM≅ΔPQR.
