Q1
A student is asked to explain why the SSS congruence criterion follows from rigid motions. The student provides this reasoning: "If two triangles have three pairs of equal sides, then one can be mapped onto the other by a reflection across the perpendicular bisector of one pair of corresponding sides, which preserves all distances." What is the primary flaw in this reasoning?
