Two triangles △ABC\triangle ABC and △PQR\triangle PQR are such that ∠B=90∘\angle B = 90^\circ, ∠Q=90∘\angle Q = 90^\circ, AB=PQ=6 cmAB = PQ = 6\,\text{cm}, AC=PR=10 cmAC = PR = 10\,\text{cm} and BC=8 cmBC = 8\,\text{cm}. a. (i) Prove that △ABC≅△PQR\triangle ABC \cong \triangle PQR. b. (ii) Hence find the length of QRQR. c. (iii) If ∠C=40∘\angle C = 40^\circ, find ∠R\angle R. State the reason for your answer.
