Answer:

2. RS=RS

Reason : Reflexive property of equality.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given RT=RU

TS=US

To prove that [tex]\triangle RST \cong \triangle RSU[/tex]

Proof:

1. Statement: RT=RU; TS= US

Reason: Given in question

2.Statement:  RS=RS

Reason: Reflexive property of equality.

Reflexive property: It is that property of equality which define a relation with itself.

3. Statement: [tex]\triangle AMD \cong \triangle BMC[/tex]

Reason: SSS ( Side -SIde -Side congruence property of triangles)

Hence proved.

The correct answer is reflexive property of equality .
