The video tutorial introduces the concept of congruent figures, focusing on identifying corresponding angles and sides. It explains that congruent figures have the same shape and size, regardless of orientation. The lesson includes examples with circles, trapezoids, hearts, and cubes, and emphasizes that congruent triangles have corresponding sides and angles. A formal definition of congruency is provided, along with the mathematical symbol. The tutorial concludes with practice problems on identifying congruent shapes and calculating the perimeter of congruent parallelograms.

What is the definition of congruent figures?

• Figures that have different shapes and sizes

• Figures that have the same shape and size

• Figures that have the same size but different shapes

• Figures that have the same shape but different sizes

Why can't congruency be determined by angles alone?

• Because angles can be the same in different-sized triangles

• Because angles do not affect size

• Because angles are not important

• Because angles can be different
