CPCTC Corresponding Parts of Congruent Triangles are Congruent Prove it! CPCTC Corresponding Parts of Congruent Triangles are Congruent
CPCTC We say: Corresponding Parts of Congruent Triangles are Congruent or CPCTC for short Once you have proven two triangles congruent using one of the short cuts, the rest of the parts of the triangle you haven’t proved directly are also congruent!
Take the 1st Given and MARK it on the picture Write this Given in the PROOF & its reason (given) If the Given is NOT a stmt, write the stmt to match Continue until there are no more Given Do you have 3 stmts? If not, look for built-in parts Do you have triangles? If not, write CNBD Write the triangle congruence and reason. If the PROVE is a pair of corresponding parts Write the congruency & CPCTC as the reason Steps To Write a Proof
MUST Prove Triangles 1st, before showing corresponding parts are CPCTC example Given: TV WV, TW bisects UX Prove: TU WX PROOF: TV WV Given TW bisects UX Given UV VX Definition of segment bisector TVU WVX VA ΔTUV ΔWXV SAS TU WX CPCTC MUST Prove Triangles 1st, before showing corresponding parts are
Corresponding Parts of Congruent Triangles are Congruent. CPCTC You can only use CPCTC in a proof AFTER you have proven a TRIANGLE congruence.
Corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent.
