Answer 1

Answer:

2. RS=RS

Reason : Reflexive property of equality.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given RT=RU

TS=US

To prove that $\triangle RST \cong \triangle RSU$

Proof:

1. Statement: RT=RU; TS= US

Reason: Given in question

2.Statement:  RS=RS

Reason: Reflexive property of equality.

Reflexive property: It is that property of equality which define a relation with itself.

3. Statement: $\triangle AMD \cong \triangle BMC$

Reason: SSS ( Side -SIde -Side congruence property of triangles)

Hence proved.

The correct answer is reflexive property of equality .

Answer 2

Reflexive property of equality.
