11.
In ΔPQR, ㄥP = 100° and ㄥR = 60°, which side of the triangle is the longest. Give reasons for your answer.
12.
In ΔABC, ㄥA = 60°, ㄥB = 40°, which side of this triangle is the smallest? Give reasons for your answer.
13.
In a ΔDEF, if ㄥD = 30°, ㄥE = 60° then which side of the triangle is longest and which side is shortest?
14.
In ΔABC, if ㄥA = 50° and ㄥB = 60°, determine the shortest and the longest side of the triangle.
15.
ABC is an isosceles triangle in which altitudes BE and CF are drawn to equal sides AC and AB respectively (see figure). Show that these altitudes are equal.

1.
In \(\triangle\)ABC, AC >AB
\(\therefore\) \(\angle\) ABC > \(\angle\)ACB
(Angles opposite to larger side is greater)
\(\therefore\) \(\angle\)ABC + \(\angle\)1 > \(\angle\)ACB + \(\angle\)1
(Adding \(\angle 1\)on both sides) Y.
\(\therefore\) \(\angle\)ABC + \(\angle\)1 > \(\angle\)ACB + \(\angle\)2
(AD bisects \(\angle\)A, \(\angle\)1 = \(\angle\)2)
\(\therefore\) \(\angle\)ADC > \(\angle\)ADB.
(Exterior angle property of triangle)
2.
In \(\triangle\)PQS and \(\triangle\)PRS,
PQ = PR (Given)
PS = PS (Common)
\(\angle\)PSQ = \(\angle\)PSR = 90°
(PS is altitude)
By R.H.S. rule,
\(\triangle PQS\cong \triangle PRS\)
\(\angle\)QPS = \(\angle\)RPS (By c.p.c.t.)
Hence, PS bisects \(\angle\)P.

3.
Given, AX II BY
\(\angle\)BAX = \(\angle\)ABY (Alternate angles) ...(i)
\(\angle\)AXY = \(\angle\)BYX (Alternate angles) ... (ii)
In \(\triangle\)APX and \(\triangle\)BPY,
AX = BY (Given) ...(iii)
From (1), (2) and (3), we get
\(\triangle APX\cong \triangle BPY\)
(By ASA) Proved
4.
Let, \(\angle\)DAC be \(\angle\)3
\(\angle\)1= \(\angle\)2
\(\angle\)1 + \(\angle\)3 = \(\angle\)2 + \(\angle\)3
\(\angle\)BAC = \(\angle\)EAD ...(i)
Given that, BD = CE
BD + DC = CE + DC
\(\Rightarrow\) BC = DE ....(ii)
\(\angle\)B = \(\angle\)E (Given)....(iii)
From (i), (ii) and (iii), we get
\(\triangle ABC\cong \triangle AED\) (By AAS rule).
5.
(i) In \(\triangle\) AOD and \(\triangle\)BOC,
OA =OB (Given)
OD = OC (Given)
\(\angle\)AOD = \(\angle\)BOC
(Vertically opposite angles)
So, by SAS criteria,
\(\triangle AOD\cong \triangle BOC\)
(ii) \(\angle\)CBA = \(\angle\)DAB (By c.p.c.t.)
AD and BC are two lines intersected by AB such that \(\angle\)CBA = \(\angle\)DAB and they form a pair of alternate angles.
Hence, AD II BC
6.
In \(\triangle\)PAB and \(\triangle\)PDC,
PA = PD (Given)
(P is the mid-point of AD)
AB = CD (Side of a square)
\(\angle\)PAB = \(\angle\)PDC = 90°
By R.H.S., \(\triangle PAB\cong \triangle PDC\)
\(\therefore\) PB = PC (By c.p.c.t.)
(Angles opp. to equal sides are equal)
\(\Rightarrow\) \(\angle\)PCB = \(\angle\)PBC. Proved.
7.

In \(\triangle\)BED and \(\triangle\)CFD,
\(\angle\)DEB = \(\angle\)DFC = 90°
BD = DC (D is the mid-point)
ED = FD (Given)
\(\therefore \triangle BED\cong \triangle CFD\) (By RHS)
\(\Rightarrow\) \(\angle\)B = \(\angle\)C (By c.p.c.t.) Proved.
8.
OA = OB (O is the mid-point of AB)
\(\angle\)AOC = \(\angle\)BOD (Vertically opposite angles)
OC = OD (O is the mid-point of CD)
\(\triangle AOC\cong \triangle BOD\)
\(\Rightarrow\) AC = BD. (By c.p.c.t) Proved.
9.
In \(\triangle\)ADC and \(\triangle\)ABC,
AC is Common
\(\angle DAC=\angle BAC\)
\(\angle DCA=\angle BCA\)(Given)
Hence, \(\triangle ADC\cong \triangle ABC\) (By AAS rule)

10.

Join AD.
In \(\triangle\)ABC and \(\triangle\)ACD,
AB = AC (Given)
BD = CD (Given)
AD = AD (Common)
By using SSS Congruency Rule,
\(\triangle ABD\cong \triangle ACD\)

DE, EF
14.
BC, AB
15.
Given: ABC is an isosceles triangle in which altitudes BE and CF are drawn to equal sides AC and AB respectively.
To Prove: BE = CF
Proof: ABC is an isosceles triangle
AB = AC
\(\angle ABC=\angle ACB\) | Angles opposite to equal sides of a triangle are equal
In \(\triangle BEC\) and \(\triangle CFB\)
\(\angle BEC=\angle CFB\) | Each = 900
