Math Problem Statement

Given PQ ≅ SR, ∠PQR ≅ ∠SRQ, prove ΔPQR ≅ ΔSRQ.

Solution

Here is how the reasoning for this proof can be structured:

  1. Statement: PQSRPQ \cong SR
    Reason: Given.

  2. Statement: PQRSRQ\angle PQR \cong \angle SRQ
    Reason: Given.

  3. Statement: QRRQQR \cong RQ
    Reason: Reflexive property of congruence (a segment is congruent to itself).

  4. Statement: PQRSRQ\triangle PQR \cong \triangle SRQ
    Reason: SAS (Side-Angle-Side congruence criterion).
