Vocabulary If two geometric figures have exactly the same shape and size, they are congruent.
Examples: CongruentNot congruent A B C D E F
Vocabulary In two congruent polygons, all of the parts of one polygon are congruent to the corresponding parts or matching parts of the other polygon. These corresponding parts include corresponding angles and corresponding sides.
