Any plane triangle can be divided into four congruent triangles.
Find the midpoint of each side, and draw a line from each midpoint to the other two midpoints.

What are the four congruence theorem for right triangle?
four types aressssasrhsasa1.HyL Theorem (Hypotenuse-Leg) - if the hypotenuse and leg of one triangle is congruent to another triangle's hypotenuse and leg, then the triangles are congruent.2.HyA (Hypotenuse-Angle) - if the hypotenuse and angle of one triangle is congruent to another triangle's hypotenuse and angle, then the triangles are congruent.3.LL (Leg-Leg) if the 2 legs of one triangle is congruent to another triangle's 2 legs, then the triangles are congruent.4.LA (Leg-Angle) if the angle and leg of one triangle is congruent to another triangle's angle and leg, then the triangles are congruent.
Which type of quarilateral has diagonals that will always divide it into four congruent triangles?
Only the square has.
Why is a triangle and a square congruent?
congruent means that all the sides are the same length. the sides of a square have to be the same length or else it would be a rectangle. Not all triangles are congruent though. there are other types of triangles unlike the square, where there is only one type.
Can a triangle have four congruent angles?
no triangle do not have four congruent angles
Does the diagonals of a parallelogram bisect the angles?
No, the diagonals of a parallelogram do not necessarily bisect the angles. The diagonals of a parallelogram divide it into four congruent triangles, but they do not necessarily bisect the angles of those triangles.
