Answer:
it is not congruent but similar
draw triangle abc draw median at d from point b
and triangle pqr median at s from point q
Step-by-step explanation:
proof ab/pq= bd/qs=ac/pr
and.....
ad =dc=ac/2
ps=sr=pr/2
to show....
triangle abc congruence to trianglepqr
ab/pq=ac/pr = equation 1
use sas axiom
angle a = angle p
ad=ac/2 and ps=pr/2
ad/ps=ac/pr=r
from equation 1 we have
..... ab/pq=ap/ps=bd/qs
by sss axiom we get ,
....triangle abd similar to triangle pqr
angle a = angle p = equation 2
from equation 1 and 2
triangle abc similar to triangle (sas)
hence proved
