When you name two congruent triangles with the letters of the vertices, you keep the order of the corresponding vertices. That means, that when you say triangle GHI is congruent to JKL, the corresponding congruent angles are G = J, H = K, and I = L. regarding the sides, segment GH = segment JK, segment HI = segment KL, and segment IG = segment LJ. Then, the answer is that, of the four options, the one that is not true is the option c, because as we already said the corresponding equal segment to GH is JK and not KL.

Statement segment GH ≅ segment KL is not true for the triangle GHI is congruent to triangle JKL. Option C is correct.

Given that,
Two triangles ΔGHI and ΔJKL given are congruent.
From the option which is false to be selected.

What is congruent geometry?

In congruent geometry, the shapes that are so identical. can be superimposed on themselves.

Since,
Two triangles ΔGHI and ΔJKL given are congruent
From the congruency, we can conclude that
segment HI ≅ segment KL
∠G ≅ ∠J
∠I ≅ ∠L
Segment GH ≅ Segment JK
When we see the option mentioned Segment GH ≅ segment KL does not meet the congurency.

Thus, statement segment GH ≅ segment KL is not true for the triangle GHI is congruent to triangle JKL. Option C is correct.
