Study Notes
Congruent Figures
- Congruent figures are identical in size and shape.
- They can be manipulated through sliding, flipping, or turning to perfectly overlap each other.
Congruent Polygons
- Congruent polygons feature congruent corresponding parts, meaning their sides and angles match.
- This congruence ensures that each element of one polygon aligns directly with the corresponding element of another polygon.
Naming Congruent Polygons
- To denote congruence of polygons, list their corresponding vertices in the same sequence.
- For example, if polygon ABC is congruent to polygon XYZ, the relationships are indicated as:
- A ≅ X,
- B ≅ Y,
- C ≅ Z.
