Detailed Solution

It is given that in the following triangles, ZX = RP, RQ = ZY, and PRQ =XZY.  
Question ImageSAS (side-Angle-side): If under a correspondence, two sides and the angle included between them of one triangle are equal to two corresponding sides and the angle included between them of another triangle, then the triangles are congruent.
We have,
ZX = RP
RQ = ZY
PRQ =XZY  
Then by the definition of SAS congruence property,
ΔPQRΔXYZ  
Therefore, ΔPQRΔXYZ   by SAS congruence property.
Hence, option (2) is correct.
