Front

What is the definition of congruent triangles?

Back

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

Front

If Triangle IHG is congruent to Triangle LJK, what can we say about their corresponding sides?

Back

The corresponding sides of Triangle IHG and Triangle LJK are equal in length.

Front

What does the symbol '≅' represent in geometry?

Back

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

Front

If ∆ABC ≅ ∆XYZ, what can we conclude about side AB?

What is the measurement of side KL in Triangle IHG if it is congruent to Triangle LJK?

Back

5.3 m

Front

What does it mean if two angles are congruent?

Back

Two angles are congruent if they have the same measure.

Front

If < F = < G, what can we infer about angles F and G?

Back

Angles F and G are congruent.
