    Study Notes

    • Congruence means having the same shape and size, denoted by the symbol for congruency which includes the equal sign.
    • Congruence is used in mass production for various products like paper bills, coins, keys, silverware, and pony/forknighten.
    • The idea of congruence helps recognize congruent figures in the same orientation, allowing for sliding, flipping, or rotating until they overlap exactly.
    • Properties of triangle congruence include reflexive, symmetric, and transitive properties.
    • Triangle congruence is based on corresponding parts being congruent in both angles and sides.
    • Triangle parts include three sides (AB, BC, AC), three angles (A, B, C), and three vertices (A, B, C).
    • Correspondence in triangles is indicated by arrowheads, with corresponding angles and sides being crucial for proving congruence.
    • The sum of the three interior angles in a triangle always equals 180 degrees (Triangle Sum Theorem).
    • Included side and included angle of a triangle refer to the side containing two angles and the angle between two sides, respectively.
    • Opposite sides and angles in a triangle are determined by their positions relative to each other.
