Question

triangle ABC ~ triangle DEF explain whether the two similar triangles may be congruent as well

Answer 1

Answer:

If one side of both triangles is congruent then only two triangles are congruent.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given triangle ABC ~ triangle DEF we have to explain whether the two similar triangles may be congruent as well.

Not necessary if the two triangles are similar then they are congruent.

To prove similar we normally use AA similarity rule i.e the angles are equal it is not necessary that the sides of two triangles are also equal.

If one of the side in the two triangles is congruent then only two triangles are congruent.

Hence, may be or may not be congruent.
