In ΔABCandΔDEF,∠B=∠E,∠F=∠C, and AB = 3DE. Then, the two triangles are
(A) Congruent but not similar
(B) Similar but not congruent
(C) Neither congruent not similar
(D) Congruent as well as similar

Solution
(B) Similar but not congruent
In ΔABCandΔDEF, ∠B=∠E,∠F=∠C and AB = 3DE
We know that, if in two triangles corresponding two angles are same, then they are similar by AAA similarity criterion.
But ΔABC,andΔDEF do not satisfy any rule of congruency like SAS, ASA, SSS, so both are not congruent.
