Overview

Congruent figures are exactly the same in shape and size. Two figures coincide exactly when one can be placed over the other and every corresponding part matches. For lines, congruency means equal length. For triangles, congruency means all corresponding sides and angles match exactly. The symbol us

Key Concepts

Two geometrical figures are congruent if

Two geometrical figures are congruent if they coincide exactly when placed one over the other. They are the same in shape and size.

Two lines are congruent only when

In congruent triangles ABC and DEF

In congruent triangles ABC and DEF, corresponding sides are AB-DE, BC-EF, and AC-DF. Corresponding angles are A-D, B-E, and C-F. Corresponding parts o

If three sides of one triangle

If three sides of one triangle are equal to three sides of the other triangle, each to each, then the triangles are congruent. Example form: AB = PQ,

If two sides and the included

If two sides and the included angle of one triangle are equal to two sides and the included angle of the other triangle, then the triangles are congru
