7.1/7.2 Congruent Figures Practice

Front

What are congruent figures?

Back

Congruent figures are shapes that are identical in form and size. They can be superimposed on 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 angles are congruent, what can we say about their measures?

Back

If two angles are congruent, their measures are equal.

Front

What is the criteria for triangle congruence?

Back

The criteria for triangle congruence include SSS (Side-Side-Side), SAS (Side-Angle-Side), ASA (Angle-Side-Angle), AAS (Angle-Angle-Side), and HL (Hypotenuse-Leg for right triangles).

Front

If ∆ABC ≅ ∆DEF, what can we conclude about the corresponding sides and angles?

Back

If ∆ABC ≅ ∆DEF, then the corresponding sides are equal in length and the corresponding angles are equal in measure.

Front

What is the relationship between corresponding parts of congruent triangles?

Back

The corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent, meaning they have the same length or measure.

Front

How can you determine if two line segments are congruent?

Back

Two line segments are congruent if they have the same length.

Front

What does it mean for two triangles to be similar?

Back

Two triangles are similar if their corresponding angles are equal and their corresponding sides are in proportion, but they are not necessarily the same size.

Front

If ∠U ≅ ∠F, what can we say about their measures?

Back

If ∠U ≅ ∠F, then the measure of ∠U is equal to the measure of ∠F.

Front

What is the significance of the reflexive property in congruence?

Back

The reflexive property states that any geometric figure is congruent to itself, which is fundamental in proving congruence.
