2. From the given diagram, what can be said about sides AC and PC?
a) AC = PC
b) AC > PC
c) AC < PC
d) AC >> PC
View Answer
Answer: a
Explanation: We can see in the diagram that ∠B = ∠Q, BC = QC and since ∠ACB and ∠PCQ form pair of vertically opposite angles, ∠ACB = ∠PCQ.
Hence, according to ASA (Angle-Side-Angle) rule, triangles ABC and PQC are congruent therefore, AC = PC.
