Answer
Given,
AM and PN are medians of triangle ABC and PQR.
∴ BM = MC and QN = NR.
BC = QR (Given)
⇒
⇒ BM = QN.
In △ ABM and △ PQN,
⇒ AB = PQ (Given)
⇒ AM = PN (Given)
⇒ BM = QN (Proved above)
∴ △ ABM ≅ △ PQN (By S.S.S. axiom)
We know that,
Corresponding parts of congruent triangles are equal.
∴ ∠AMB = ∠PNQ (By C.P.C.T.C.)
⇒ 180° - ∠AMB = 180° - ∠PNQ
⇒ ∠AMC = ∠PNR
Given,
⇒ BC = QR
⇒
⇒ MC = NR.
In △ AMC and △ PNR,
⇒ AM = PN (Given)
⇒ ∠AMC = ∠PNR (Proved above)
⇒ MC = NR (Proved above)
∴ △ AMC ≅ △ PNR (By S.A.S. axiom)
∴ AC = PR (By C.P.C.T.C.)
In △ ABC and △ PQR,
⇒ AB = PQ (Given)
⇒ BC = QR (Given)
⇒ AC = PR (Proved above)
∴ △ ABC ≅ △ PQR (By S.S.S. axiom)
Hence, Option 4 is the correct option.
