Day 58 -Congruent Triangles

Front

What are congruent triangles?

Back

Triangles that have the same size and shape, meaning their corresponding sides and angles are equal.

Front

What does CPCTC stand for?

Back

Corresponding Parts of Congruent Triangles are Congruent.

Front

What is the definition of corresponding angles?

Back

Angles that are in the same position in different triangles when the triangles are positioned in the same way.

Front

What is the definition of corresponding sides?

Back

Sides that are in the same position in different triangles when the triangles are positioned in the same way.

Front

What is the SSS Congruence Postulate?

Back

If three sides of one triangle are equal to three sides of another triangle, then the triangles are congruent.

Front

What is the SAS Congruence Postulate?

Back

If two sides and the included angle of one triangle are equal to two sides and the included angle of another triangle, then the triangles are congruent.

Front

What is the ASA Congruence Postulate?

Back

If two angles and the included side of one triangle are equal to two angles and the included side of another triangle, then the triangles are congruent.

Front

What is the AAS Congruence Theorem?

Back

If two angles and a non-included side of one triangle are equal to two angles and the corresponding non-included side of another triangle, then the triangles are congruent.

Front

What is the HL Congruence Theorem?

Back

If the hypotenuse and one leg of a right triangle are equal to the hypotenuse and one leg of another right triangle, then the triangles are congruent.

Front

What is a scalene triangle?

Back

A triangle with all sides of different lengths.
