Objective Use CPCTC to prove parts of triangles are congruent.
CPCTC is an abbreviation for the phrase “Corresponding Parts of Congruent Triangles are Congruent.” It can be used as a justification in a proof after you have proven two triangles congruent.
SSS, SAS, ASA, AAS, and HL use corresponding parts to prove triangles congruent. CPCTC uses congruent triangles to prove corresponding parts congruent. Remember!

Then look for triangles that contain these angles. Work backward when planning a proof. To show that ED || GF, look for a pair of angles that are congruent. Then look for triangles that contain these angles. Helpful Hint
