Question
Consider the given pairs of triangles and say whether each pair is that of congruent triangles. If the triangles are congruent, say ‘how’; if they are not congruent say ‘why’ and also say if a small modification would make them congruent:
Solution
In the given figure
AB = AC ...(Given)
BM = MC ...(AM is the median of the ΔABC)
AM is common ...(By SSS congruency)
∴ ΔABM ≅ ΔACM
