Overview

Congruent figures have the same shape and the same size. In triangles, congruence means that all corresponding sides and angles are equal. Only three corresponding parts are needed to prove triangle congruence, provided they satisfy one of the four criteria: SAS, ASA/AAS, SSS, or RHS. After congruen

Key Concepts

Congruent figures have both the same

Congruent figures have both the same shape and the same size. When one is placed over the other, they exactly cover each other.

Line segments are congruent if they

Line segments are congruent if they have equal lengths, squares are congruent if their side lengths are equal, and circles are congruent if their radi

If two sides and the included

If two sides and the included angle of one triangle are equal to the corresponding two sides and included angle of another triangle, then the triangle

If two angles and one side

If two angles and one side of one triangle are equal to the corresponding two angles and side of another triangle, then the triangles are congruent. I
