4.5 Congruent Figures - IAG 24-25

Front

What does it mean for two figures to be congruent?

Back

Two figures are congruent if they have the same size and the same shape.

Front

How do you write a congruence statement for triangles?

Back

A congruence statement for triangles is written using the symbol '≅'. For example, if triangle LMK is congruent to triangle YXZ, it is written as ΔLMK ≅ ΔYXZ.

Front

What is the symbol used to indicate congruence?

Back

The symbol used to indicate congruence is '≅'.

Front

If ΔPIG ≅ ΔCOW, what can we say about the corresponding sides?

Back

The corresponding sides of the triangles are equal in length.

Front

If ΔABC ≅ ΔDEF, what can we say about the angles?

Back

The corresponding angles of the triangles are equal.

Front

If two triangles are congruent, what can we say about their perimeters?

Back

If two triangles are congruent, their perimeters are equal.

Front

What does the term 'corresponding parts' refer to in congruent figures?

Back

Corresponding parts refer to the sides and angles of congruent figures that match each other.

Front

If ∠U ≅ ∠F, what can we conclude about their measures?

Back

The measures of ∠U and ∠F are equal.

Front

What is the relationship between congruent triangles and transformations?

Back

Congruent triangles can be obtained from one another through transformations such as translation, rotation, or reflection.
