In the adjacent figure ABCD is square and ∆ APB is an equilateral triangle . Prove that ∆ APD ≈ ∆ BPC .
Answers
Answer:
there are three conditions to congurenent a triangle.they are..
1. AD=BC
2. angle DAP= angleCBP
3.AP=BP
by SAS (side angle side) congurence condition ......
∆APD congurent to ∆BPC
Step-by-step explanation:
ABCD is a square
angle DAB = angle CBA = 90°
∆ APB is an equivalateral triangle
angle PAB = angle PBA = 60°
∆ APB = ∆ BPC
from the diagram
angle DAP = angle DAB - angle PAB
angle DAP = 90° - 60°
angle DAP = 30°
_______________________________
angle CBP = angle CBA - angle PBA
angle CBP = 90° - 60°
angle CBP = 30°
:. angle DAP = angle CBP → 1
In ∆ APD and ∆ BPC
AD = BC
angle DAP = angle CBP
AP = BP
By SAS congruent rule
∆ APD ≈ ∆ BPC
