In triangle ABC, AB=6 m, BC=8 m, and AC=10 m. In triangle PRQ, PR=8 m, PQ=10 m, and RQ=6 m. Which of the following is a correct order of congruency?
ΔBCA\cong\triangle RPQ
ΔABC\cong\triangle RPQ
ΔBAC\cong\triangle RPQ
ΔCBA\cong\triangle RPQ
ΔBCA≅ΔRPQ
Match corresponding sides by length: AB = 6, BC = 8, AC = 10 corresponds to RQ = 6, PR = 8, PQ = 10. Thus, vertex A corresponds to R, B to Q, and C to P.
Triangle ABC with side lengths AB = 6 m, BC = 8 m, AC = 10 m; Triangle PRQ with side lengths PR = 8 m, PQ = 10 m, RQ = 6 m
ΔABC≅ΔPRQ
Match corresponding sides by length: AB = 6, BC = 8, AC = 10 corresponds to RQ = 6, PR = 8, PQ = 10. Thus, vertex A corresponds to R, B to Q, and C to P.
Confusing the vertex order in triangle congruence. The correspondence of vertices must preserve side lengths: AB (6) = RQ (6), BC (8) = QP (8), AC (10) = RP (10).
Analyze Given Side Lengths of Triangle ABC
