Question

It is given that $\Delta ABC\cong \Delta RPQ$. Is it true to say that $BC=QR$ ? Why?

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is B False

State whether the given statement is True or False :

Given, $△ABC\cong △RPQ$

Now, we know that two triangles are congruent if the sides and angles of one triangle are equal to the corresponding side and angles of another triangle.

Then, by C.P.C.T, $AB=RP,BC=PQ,$ and $AC=RQ$.

Thus, $BC=PQ$ and not $QR$.

Hence, the statement $BC=QR$is false.
