congruent -Gieco53-
Are congruent triangles.
You can find the __________ parts of two congruent triangles by aligning them perfectly on top of each other. Answer: corresponding
Once you have shown that two triangles are congruent you can use CPCTC (corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent) to show the congruence of the remaining sides and angles.
Two triangles are congruent if they satisfy any of the following:-- two sides and the included angle of one triangle equal to the corresponding parts of the other one-- two angles and the included side of one triangle equal to the corresponding parts of the other one-- all three sides of one triangle equal to the corresponding parts of the other one-- they are right triangles, and hypotenuse and one leg of one triangle equal to thecorresponding parts of the other one-- they are right triangles, and hypotenuse and one acute angle of one triangle equalto the corresponding parts of the other one
