Q15 - Geometry

Question

For the following figure, state whether the figure appears to be congruent or not.

Step-by-Step Solution

Answer

Yes, both figures appear to be congruent.

Step 1. Check the figures.

Consider the figures of two-line segments.

Step 2. Apply the concept of congruence.

Two figures are said to be congruent, if both have the same shape and size or if all their corresponding parts are equal.

Step 3. Step description.

Here, both the line segments appear to be of the same length and also, the thickness of the line segments looks the same, so their shapes should be the same.

 

Thus, both the line segments appear to be congruent.
