Solution
Given, ∆ABC is congruent to ∆PQR
Hence, we can say that
AB = PQ
BC = QR
AC = PR
(corresponding parts of congruent triangles are equal)
Hence, ratio of corresponding sides
→ AB/PQ = AB/AB = 1 (since, PQ = AB)
→ BC/QR = BC/BC = 1 (since, QR = BC)
→ AC/PR = AC/AC = 1 (since, PR = AC)
Hence, the ratio of corresponding sides of two congruent triangles is always 1 : 1 or simply 1.
Ratio = 1:1
Given :
- Δ ABC is conruent to Δ PQR.
To find :
- Ratio of corresponding sides of the two triangles
Solution :
The two triangles are congruent, therefore we can write the corresponding sides of the two triangles.
Corresponding Sides :-
= =
Side AB = Side PQ --->(1)
Side BC = Side QR ---> (2)
Side AC = Side PR ---> (3)
Let's take one pair at a time from the corresponding sides.
From (1) we can substitute AB for PQ.
Next pair :-
From (2) we can substitute BC for QR,
Next pair :-
From (3) we can substitute AC for PR,
•°• We infer that the ratio of corresponding sides of two congruent triangles are 1:1 or 1.
