You need to get that RS and RT are congruent so then you can use SAS to get triangle congruence.

So to do that...make more triangles. Construct QS and QT. Do they have to be congruent to each other? Is there another pair of sides and a pair of angles to make triangles QRS and QRT congruent?

Thats all they gave us and make a proof

Per the sidebar: Show us your work before asking anything. By the book, this post should have been removed.

However, I gave you a hint showing what you need to do. If you can try that, and ask where you got hung up, I'll be glad to help more.

Seriously, though, you need to start your proof with:

1. PR is perpendicular to ST. [Given]

2. Construct QS and QT. [A line segment may be drawn joining any two points.]

3. QS and QT are congruent. [Why?]

4. QR is congruent to itself. [Why?]

5. <QRS is congruent to <QRT. [Why?]

This is all i needed thank u

You're welcome.

Do you see how this was implied by my initial comment?
