Question

Given: SR bisects angle TSQ angle T is congruent to angle Q prove: triangle RTS is congruent to RQS

Answer 1

Triangle RTS is congruent to RQS by AAS postulate of congruent

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us revise the cases of congruence  

• SSS  ⇒ 3 sides in the 1st Δ ≅ 3 sides in the 2nd Δ
• SAS ⇒ 2 sides and including angle in the 1st Δ ≅ 2 sides and  including angle in the 2nd Δ
• ASA ⇒ 2 angles and the side whose joining them in the 1st Δ  ≅ 2 angles and the side whose joining them in the 2nd Δ
• AAS ⇒ 2 angles and one side in the 1st Δ ≅ 2 angles   and one side in the 2nd Δ
• HL ⇒ hypotenuse leg of the 1st right Δ ≅ hypotenuse  leg of the 2nd right Δ

∵ SR bisects angle TSQ ⇒ given

∴ ∠TSR ≅ ∠QSR

∴ m∠TSR ≅ m∠QSR

∵ ∠T ≅ ∠Q ⇒ given

∴ m∠T ≅ m∠Q

In two triangles RTS and RQS

∵ m∠T ≅ m∠Q

∵ m∠TSR ≅ m∠QSR

∵ RS is a common side in the two triangle

- By using the 4th case above

∴ Δ RTS ≅ ΔRQS ⇒ AAS postulate

Triangle RTS is congruent to RQS by AAS postulate of congruent
