To prove:
Explanation of Solution
Proof:
First prove that
As
So,
(According to AAS congruence criteria, if two angles and the sides not included between them are equal to the two angles and the sides not included between them of the other triangle then the triangles are said to be congruent)
Now to prove,
Consider
As
So,
(According to RHS congruence criteria, if in a right-angled triangle, the hypotenuse and the side of one triangle are congruent to the hypotenuse and the side of other right-angled triangle then the triangles are said to be congruent)
Hence,
