Q10 of 28 Page 95

The Indian Navy flights fly in a formation that can be viewed as two triangles with common side. Prove that ∆SRT ≡ ∆QRT, if T is the midpoint of SQ and SR = RQ.

Given: T is the mid-point of SQ and SR = RQ


To Prove: Δ SRT ≅ Δ QRT


Proof


In Δ SRT and QRT


RT = RT [common]


ST = QT [T is the mid-point of SQ]


SR = RQ [Given]


Thus, Δ SRT ≅ Δ QRT [Side – Side – Side]


Hence Proved.
