Learn about congruent figures in geometry, where matching sides and angles are identical. Find congruent parts in polygons by matching corresponding vertices. Explore techniques for identifying congruent triangles and applying the Third Angles Theorem. Understand how to prove triangles are congruent.
E N D
Congruent Figures • Congruent polygons have congruent corresponding parts—their matching sides and angles. • When you name congruent polygons, you must list corresponding vertices in the same order.
Finding Congruent Parts • If HIJK LMNO, what are the congruent corresponding parts?
If WYS MKV, what are the congruent corresponding parts?
Finding Congruent Triangles • Are the triangles congruent? Justify your answer.
Third Angles Theorem • If two angles of one triangle are congruent to two angles of another triangle, then the third angles are congruent.
