Answer:
The correct option is
If two sides and one included angle are equal in triangles PQS and PRS, then their third sides are equal.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
RS ≅ SQ
∠PSR ≅ ∠PSQ = 90°
To Prove:
point P is equidistant from points R and Q
i.e PR ≅ PQ
Proof:
In ΔPSR and Δ PSQ
PS ≅ PS ……….{Reflexive Property}
∠PSR ≅ ∠PSQ = 90° …………..{Measure of each angle is 90° given}
RS ≅ QS ……….{Given}
ΔPSR ≅ ΔPSQ ….{By Side-Angle-Side Congruence test}
∴ PR ≅ PQ .....{Corresponding Parts of Congruent Triangles}
i.e point P is equidistant from points R and Q .......Proved
