Triangle PQRPQR with vertices P(3,4)P(3, 4), Q(7,2)Q(7, 2), R(5,8)R(5, 8) is congruent to triangle STUSTU. If the congruence can be established through rigid motions, but triangle STUSTU has vertices S(4,3)S(-4, 3), T(2,7)T(-2, 7), U(8,5)U(-8, 5), what must be verified to confirm the triangles are indeed congruent?
