Equilateral Triangle is nothing but, The triangle in which all the sides are equal,
In Triangle ABC, We can say that,
(1) AB = BC = CA, Since it is equilateral triangle, and since all the sides are equal,
Now,
In Triangle XYZ, We can say that,
(2) XY = YZ = ZX, Since it is equilateral triangle, and since all sides are equal,
Now, According to the question,
AB = XY, From this, we can say that,
BC = YZ, and,
CA = ZA, From (1) and (2)
Now, We also know that there is an axiom known as SSS Axiom,
SSS axiom states that, There exists only 1 triangle with 3 sides given,
Which means, From this axiom, we can say that Triangle ABC and Triangle XYZ are equal that is congruent,
=> ΔABC ≅ ΔXYZ,
Therefore by SSS Axiom we can say that both the triangles are similar, This is the condition by which we can say !
Hope you understand, Have a Great day and Advance Merry Christmas !
