Concept
A parallelogram is a straightforward quadrilateral with two sets of parallel sides in Euclidean geometry. In a parallelogram, the opposing or confronting sides are of equal length, and the opposing angles are of equal size.
Given
ABCD is a parallelogram of which no angle is 60º. Equilateral triangles ADE and DCF are drawn outwardly on the sides AD and DC is given
Find
We have to show that ΔABE is congruent to ΔCFB
Solution
The steps are as follow:
- ABCD is a parallelogram so AB = CD and AD = BC because in parallelogram opposite sides are equal
- Equilateral triangles have been drawn on AD and DC, respectively, as ΔADE and ΔDCF.
- Considering the ∆ ABE and ∆ CFB
AB = CD (Opposite sides of parallelogram are equal)
AB= CF (Sides of an equilateral triangle)
- So
∠EAB = ∠EAD + ∠DAB
∠EAB = 60º + ∠DAB ( ∵ ∆ADE is an equilateral triangle)
∠EAB = 60º + ∠DCB (Opposite angles of parallelogram are equal)
∠EAB = ∠FCB
AE = AD (Sides of an equilateral triangle are equal )
AE = BC (Opposite sides of parallelogram are equal)
- In ∆ABE and ∆CFB
AB= CF
∠EAB = ∠FCB
AE = BC
- So congruency between triangle ΔABE and ΔCFB is proved
Hence we have showed that ΔABE is congruent to ΔCFB
