Solution


In the above case, we first note that PQR=60 (Angle sum property).

Now, AB = PQ, BC = QR and
PQR=ABC=60.

Thus, the triangles are congruent by SAS criterion.


In this case, ABC=PQR,
BC = QR and ACB=PRQ.
Thus, the triangles are congruent by ASA criterion.


In this case, we note that ACB=PQR=60
(Angle Sum Property).

We also note that when all angles of a triangle are 60, then the triangle is equilateral.
Thus, we have AB = BC = AC = PQ = QR = PR = 6 cm and by SSS criterion, the triangles are congruent.
