Corresponding Parts of Congruent Triangles

Front

What are corresponding sides in triangles?

Back

Corresponding sides are the sides of two triangles that are in the same relative position.

Front

What does it mean for angles in similar figures?

Back

All angles in similar figures are congruent (equal).

If ΔABC ≅ ΔDEF, what can we conclude about ∠A?

Back

∠A ≅ ∠D.

Front

What is the difference between congruent and similar figures?

Back

Congruent figures are the same shape and size, while similar figures are the same shape but not necessarily the same size.
