It is claimed that right triangles ARM and and BQM are congruent because they have a side that's the same length; but for two right triangles to be congruent I think you need two sides to have the same length, OR you need one side and an angle to be the same (in addition to the obvious right angles).

A huge number of Chinese words have the unfortunate habit of changing meaning depending on the context in which it is used. For example, the word 影 (ying) could mean any of either picture, movie, photograph, reflection, shadow, or trace (as in, "I've not seen a trace of him anywhere"). It's maddening!
