triangle abc and dbc have bc common ab= bd and ac = cd are the two triangles congruent state in symbolic form .which congruence condition do you use does angle and equals to angle and why or why not
Answers
Answer:
Triangles ABC and DBC have side BC common, AB=BD and AC=CD.
So,
BC=BC⋯⋯[common side]
AB=BD⋯⋯[given]
AC=CD⋯⋯[given]
So, by SSS test we can say that,
ΔABC≅ΔDBC
Congruence condition used is SSS
Suppose congruent triangles are as shown as in the figure.
Then, ∠ABD
=∠ACD
Then they will not be equal.
Because , ∠ABD=∠ABC±∠DBC
and ∠ACD=∠ACB±∠DCB
From congruency, ∠ABC≅∠DBC and ∠ACB≅∠DCB
So, we cannot say that ∠ABD is equal to ∠ACD
hope it's help you
