Explanation:
#color(blue)"using the side-side-side method"#
#"(side-side-side)#
#"if the three sides of one triangle are congruent to the three"#
#"sides of another triangle then the triangles are congruent"#
#"to prove "triangleABC-=trianglePQR#
#"use the "color(blue)"distance formula"#
#color(red)(bar(ul(|color(white)(2/2)color(black)(d=sqrt((x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2))color(white)(2/2)|)))#
#P(4,5)" and "Q(2,2)#
#rArrPQ=sqrt((4-2)^2+(5-2)^2)=sqrt(4+9)=sqrt13#
#A(-3,-1)" and "B(-5,-4)#
#rArrAB=sqrt((-3+5)^2+(-1+4)^2)=sqrt(4+9)=sqrt13#
#rArrPQ-=AB#
#"Repeat the above process for sides"#
#PR" and "AC" and "QR" and "BC#
#"to prove congruency"#
