The correct Answer is:
To determine whether the triangles \( \Delta KLM \) and \( \Delta PQR \) are congruent, we will use the information provided and apply the criteria for triangle congruence. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify Given Information:** - For triangle \( KLM \): - \( KM = 4 \, \text{cm} \) - \( \angle K = 75^\circ \) - \( \angle M = 40^\circ \) - For triangle \( PQR \): - \( PR = 4 \, \text{cm} \) - \( \angle Q = 65^\circ \) - \( \angle R = 40^\circ \) 2. **Calculate the Missing Angle in Triangle \( PQR \):** - The sum of angles in a triangle is \( 180^\circ \). - For triangle \( PQR \): \[ \angle P + \angle Q + \angle R = 180^\circ \] \[ \angle P + 65^\circ + 40^\circ = 180^\circ \] \[ \angle P + 105^\circ = 180^\circ \] \[ \angle P = 180^\circ - 105^\circ = 75^\circ \] 3. **Compare Corresponding Angles:** - Now we have: - \( \angle K = 75^\circ \) (from \( KLM \)) - \( \angle P = 75^\circ \) (calculated for \( PQR \)) - \( \angle M = 40^\circ \) (from \( KLM \)) - \( \angle R = 40^\circ \) (from \( PQR \)) 4. **Compare Corresponding Sides:** - We also have: - \( KM = 4 \, \text{cm} \) (from \( KLM \)) - \( PR = 4 \, \text{cm} \) (from \( PQR \)) 5. **Establish Congruence:** - We can now establish that: - \( \angle K = \angle P \) - \( \angle M = \angle R \) - \( KM = PR \) - By the Angle-Side-Angle (ASA) congruence criterion, since two angles and the included side of one triangle are equal to two angles and the included side of another triangle, we conclude that: \[ \Delta KLM \cong \Delta PQR \] ### Conclusion: The triangles \( \Delta KLM \) and \( \Delta PQR \) are congruent. ---
