Congruent shapes/figures 等边图
形
在通常的平面几何里，把平面上的一个图形搬到另
一个图形上，如果它们完全重合，那么这两个图形
叫做全等图形，简称全等形。
In general plane geometry, if one figure on a
plane is moved to another figure, if they are
completely coincident, then these two figures
are called congruent figures or shapes.
Match: congruent shapes/figures
Angle LMN Angle XYZ

When an angle is described using three letters, the middle letter tells you the
angle that is being discussed. So, the angle LMN is the angle at the vertex M.
∠ MLN is a mathematical way of writing ’ angle MLN’.
Angle LMN Angle XYZ

Sofia draws these triangles.

Sofia says, "I think my two triangles are congruent."

Without knowing the lengths of any of the sides,


how do you know that Sofia is incorrect?
Sofia says: "In an equilateral triangle all the
angles are 60 °. This means that all equilateral
triangles must be congruent, as all the angles
are the same size." Is she correct? Discuss.

Sofia is incorrect. Even


though all the angles are
the same size, the side
lengths of the equilateral
triangles can be different
and so the triangles are
not congruent.
Arun is looking at the perimeters of
congruent shapes.
Arun says, "Congruent shapes will
always have the same perimeter."
Is Arun correct? Explain your
answer.

Arun is correct. Congruent shapes


are identical in shape and size, so
they must have the same perimeter.
The areas of congruent shapes are
the same.
Summary: Congruent shapes

same shape and size


same perimeter
same area
