CONGRUENCE OF TRIANGLES
Two triangles are congruent if pairs of corresponding sides and corresponding angles are congruent.
We can superimpose ∆∆ so as to cover it exactly.
During superimposing, side AB falls on side PQ, BC falls on side QR and AC falls on PR. Vertex A falls on P, B falls on Q and C fall on R. If two triangles are congruent then corresponding parts (i.e. angles and sides) that match one another are equal. Thus, in these two congruent triangles, we have;
