Question:

Fill the blanks In the following so that each of the following statements is true.

(i) Sides opposite to equal angles of a triangle are ___

(ii) Angle opposite to equal sides of a triangle are ___ 

(iii) In an equilateral triangle all angles are ___  

(iv) In ΔABC, if ∠A = ∠C, then AB = 

(v) If altitudes CE and BF of a triangle ABC are equal, then AB  ___

(vi) In an isosceles triangle ABC with AB = AC, if BD and CE are its altitudes, then BD is ___ CE.

(vii) In right triangles ABC and DEF, if hypotenuse AB = EF and side AC = DE, then ΔABC ≅ Δ ___

Solution:

(i) Sides opposite to equal angles of a triangle are equal

(ii) Angles opposite to equal sides of a triangle are equal

(iii) In an equilateral triangle all angles are equal Reason: Since all sides are equal in a equilateral triangle. the angles opposite to equal sides will be equal .

(iv) In a ΔABC, if ∠A = ∠C, then AB = BC

(v) If altitudes CE and BF of a triangle ABC are equal, then AB = AC

(vi) In an isosceles triangle ΔABC with AB = AC, if BD and CE are its altitudes, then BD is equal to CE

(vii) In right triangles ABC and DEF, if hypotenuse AB = EF and side AC = DE, then, ΔABC = ΔEFD
