Question 13 Marks
Draw a labelled figure showing information in each of the following statements and write the antecedent and the consequent : If the altitudes drawn on two sides of a triangle are congruent, then these two sides are congruent.
Answer
If the altitudes drawn on two sides of a triangle are congruent, then these two sides are congruent.
Antecedent (Given): Altitude drawn on two sides of triangle are congrunent.
In ∆ABC, AD ⊥ BC . and BE ⊥ AC. seg AD ≅ seg BE

Consequent (To prove): Two sides are congruent.
side BC ≅ side AC A

Answer
If angles in a linear pair are congruent, then each of them is a right angle.
Antecedent (Given): Angles in a linear pair are congrunent.
∠ABC and ∠ABD are angles in a linear pair i.e. ∠ABC = ∠ABD
Consequent (To prove): Each angle is a right angle.
i.e. ∠ABC – ∠ABD = 90°
