Explain why the indicated triangles are congruent.S is the midpoint of  and  ? . Explain why ?RUS ? ?TUS.

What will be an ideal response?


Since S is the midpoint of   (given),  ? .   ?  is given. Also,   ? . So three sides of ?RUS are congruent to the corresponding parts of ?TUS. So ?RUS ? ?TUS by SSS.
