Module 5.1 CPCTC Practice

Front

What does CPCTC stand for?

Back

CPCTC stands for Corresponding Parts of Congruent Triangles are Congruent.

Front

What is the measure of angle C in a triangle if it is given as 100º?

Back

The measure of angle C is 100º.

Front

If triangle ABC is congruent to triangle XYZ, which statement is true?

Back

AB is congruent to XY (AB≅XY).

Front

What can we conclude about the corresponding parts of two congruent triangles?

Back

The corresponding parts of two congruent triangles are congruent.

Front

If angle A is 48º in a pair of congruent triangles, what is the measure of angle F if the triangles are congruent?

Back

The measure of angle F is 48º.

Front

What is the definition of congruent triangles?

Back

Congruent triangles are triangles that are identical in shape and size, meaning all corresponding sides and angles are equal.

Front

What is the significance of corresponding parts in congruent triangles?

Back

The significance of corresponding parts in congruent triangles is that they are equal, which allows us to make conclusions about the triangles' properties.

Front

How can you prove that two triangles are congruent?

Back

You can prove that two triangles are congruent using criteria such as SSS (Side-Side-Side), SAS (Side-Angle-Side), ASA (Angle-Side-Angle), AAS (Angle-Angle-Side), or HL (Hypotenuse-Leg for right triangles).

Front

What is the relationship between the angles of congruent triangles?

Back

The angles of congruent triangles are equal, meaning if two triangles are congruent, all corresponding angles are congruent.

Front

If two angles of one triangle are equal to two angles of another triangle, what can be concluded?

Back

If two angles of one triangle are equal to two angles of another triangle, the triangles are congruent (by the Angle-Angle criterion).
