Front

What does CPCTC stand for?

Back

Corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent.

Front

What postulate proves these triangles congruent?

Back

ASA (Angle-Side-Angle) postulate.

Front

What is the Reflexive Property?

Back

A property stating that any quantity is equal to itself.

Front

What does the HL Congruence Theorem state?

Back

If a hypotenuse and one leg of a right triangle are congruent to the hypotenuse and one leg of another right triangle, then the triangles are congruent.

Front

What is the SAS Congruence Postulate?

Back

If two sides and the included angle of one triangle are congruent to two sides and the included angle of another triangle, then the triangles are congruent.

Front

What is the AAS Congruence Theorem?

Back

If two angles and a non-included side of one triangle are congruent to two angles and the corresponding non-included side of another triangle, then the triangles are congruent.

Front

What is the SSS Congruence Postulate?

Back

If three sides of one triangle are congruent to three sides of another triangle, then the triangles are congruent.

Front

What is the definition of congruent triangles?

Back

Triangles that have the same size and shape, meaning all corresponding sides and angles are equal.

Front

What is the significance of corresponding parts in congruent triangles?

Back

Corresponding parts of congruent triangles are equal, which is the basis for proving triangle congruence.

Front

Can the SSA condition prove triangle congruence?

Back

No, SSA does not guarantee triangle congruence.
