Front

What is the definition of congruent triangles?

Back

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

Front

What transformation proves that triangle TUV is congruent to triangle XYZ?

Back

Rotate triangle TUV 270 degrees clockwise about a point.

Front

What is the result of reflecting a triangle across a line?

Back

The resulting triangle is congruent to the original triangle.

Front

What is the Angle-Side-Angle (ASA) Congruence Theorem?

Back

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

Front

What is the purpose of transformations in geometry?

Back

To manipulate shapes in various ways while preserving their properties, such as congruence.

Front

What is a 90-degree clockwise rotation?

Back

A transformation that turns a shape 90 degrees to the right around a fixed point.

Front

What is the definition of a reflection in geometry?

Back

A transformation that flips a shape over a line, creating a mirror image.

Front

What is the Side-Angle-Side (SAS) Congruence Theorem?

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 does it mean for two shapes to be congruent?

Back

They have the same size and shape, and can be made to coincide by rigid transformations.

Front

What is a translation in geometry?

Back

A transformation that moves every point of a shape the same distance in the same direction.
