Solution
The correct option is C SSS In △ABE and △ACE
AB = AC = 7 cm
BE = CE = 5 cm
AE = AE (common arm)
by SSS congruence rule △ABE ≅ △ACE
Note: Accordign to SSS rule: If all the three sides of one triangle are equivalent to the corresponding three sides of the second triangle, then the two triangles are said to be congruent by SSS rule.
