HW #42 Congruent Figures

Front

What are congruent figures?

Back

Congruent figures are shapes that are the same size and shape. They can be transformed into each other through rotations, translations, or reflections.

Front

What does the symbol '≅' represent in geometry?

Back

The symbol '≅' indicates that two figures are congruent.

Front

If two triangles have the same side lengths, what can be said about them?

Back

If two triangles have the same side lengths, they are congruent.

Front

What is a congruence statement?

Back

Front

How can you determine if two angles are congruent?

Back

Two angles are congruent if they have the same measure.

Front

What is the significance of corresponding parts in congruent figures?

Back

In congruent figures, corresponding parts (sides and angles) are equal in measure.

Front

What is the relationship between congruence and transformations?

Back

Congruence can be established through transformations such as translations, rotations, and reflections.

Front

What does it mean for two figures to be similar?

Back

Similar figures have the same shape but may differ in size; their corresponding angles are equal, and their corresponding sides are proportional.

Front

How do you write a congruence statement for two triangles?

Back

Front

What is the Angle-Angle (AA) criterion for triangle congruence?

Back

The AA criterion states that if two angles of one triangle are equal to two angles of another triangle, the triangles are similar.
