Warm Up 1. Name all sides and angles of ∆FGH. 2. What is true about K and L? Why? 3. What does it mean for two segments to be congruent?
The Idea of a Congruence Two geometric figures with exactly the same size and shape. A C B D E F Each triangle is made up of six parts: 3 sides and 3 angles
Corresponding Parts If all six pairs of corresponding parts (sides and angles) are congruent, then the triangles are congruent. B A C AB DE BC EF AC DF A D B E C F ABC DEF E D F
CPCTC Corresponding Parts of Congruent Triangles are Congruent.
Congruence Transformations Congruency amongst triangles does not change when you… slide (translation), Turn (rotation), or flip (reflection) … the triangles.
EXAMPLE 1 Identify congruent parts Write a congruence statement for the triangles. Identify all pairs of congruent corresponding parts.
Complete each congruence statement.
