Triangle Part 2
Triangle Part 2
• Two figures are congruent if they are of the same shape and of the same size.
• Two circles of the same radii are congruent.
• Two squares of the same sides are congruent.
• Two triangles are congruent if their corresponding parts are congruent.
• If two triangles ABC and PQR are congruent under the correspondence A ↔ P, B ↔ Q and C ↔ R, then
symbolically, it is expressed as Δ ABC ≅ Δ PQR.
Some congruence rules are SAS(Side-Angle-Side)
Congruence Rule: Two triangles are congruent if two sides and the included angle of one triangle are equal to the
sides and the included angle of the other triangle. ASA(Angle-Side-Side) Congruence Rule: Two triangles are
congruent if two angles and the included side of one triangle are equal to two angles and the included side of the
other triangle. AAS Congruence Rule: Two triangles are congruent if any two pairs of angles and one pair of
corresponding sides are equal.
