Problem Regarding two congruent triangles $△ABC$ and $△A’B’C’$, when the two pairs of sides $AB$ and $A’B’$ and $AC$ and $A’C’$ are perpendicular to each other, the remaining pair $BC$ and $B’C’$ are also perpendicular to each other. However, assume that $∠A$ and $∠A’$ are not right angles. $$ $$ $$ $$ $\downarrow$ $\downarrow$ $\downarrow$…

Problem There are $△ABC$ and $△A’B’C’$. $$AB=A’B’, \ BC=B’C’, \ and \ ∠A=∠A’.$$ Then, under which of the following conditions can we always have $△ABC≡△A’B’C’$? (1) Either $△ABC$ or $△A’B’C’$ is an obtuse triangle. (2) $∠C$ is a right angle. (3) $BC>AB$. (4) $AC$ and $A’C’$ are the maximum sides of $△ABC$ and $△A’B’C’$, respectively. (5) $AB>AC$…
