Congruent Triangles Definition

Congruent Triangles Definition Introduction:- We examine two triangles which are congruent because all corresponding angles and sides have the same measures. We discuss circumstances which guarantee that two triangles are congruent. Definition:- Two triangles are said to be congruent if the corresponding angles and sides have the same measurements. This means that there are six corresponding parts with the same measurements. Under certain circumstances, it is only necessary to know that three corresponding parts have the same measures in order to guarantee that two triangles are congruent. We summarize these situations below without proof. <-- SSS Two triangles are congruent if all three sides have equal measures. <-- SAS Two triangles are congruent if two sides and the included angle have the same measures.

<-- ASA Two triangles are congruent if two angles and the side between them have the same measures. <-- AAS Two triangles are congruent if two angles and a third side have the same measure. <-- HL Two right triangles are congruent if their hypotenuses and one leg have the same measure. <-- HA Two triangles are congruent if their hypotenuses and one of the acute angles have the same measure. As soon as the above facts are established, we know that the two triangles are congruent and also that all six of their corresponding angles and sides have the same measures. When two triangles such as ABC and XYZ are congruent and angles correspond as follows: AX, BY, and CZ we write this congruence as . We illustrate some of these situations below. To understand we assume that we have two triangles ABC and A'B'C' in which ABC contains three sides a, b, c respectively and triangle A'B'C' contains three sides a, b and c' respectively. So according to first condition if two pairs of sides of both triangles and one angle of both triangles is same then we can say that triangles are congruent. So we can write that b = b, c = c' and <A = <A then triangles ABC and A'B'C' are congruent.

If in case that if two triangles ABC and A'B'C' have two pair of angles are same with one side is common in both then the triangles are said to be congruent. <A = <A, <B = <B' and c = c' then triangles ABC and A'B'C' are congruent. If all sides of triangle ABC and triangle A'B'C' are same then we can say that triangles are congruent. So we can write that a=a, b=b, c= c', To understand congruence triangles more deeply we take an example where we have two triangles DEF and DEF. Now we have to find that both triangles are Geometry congruent triangles or not. The sides of DEF are d = 1 , e = 2 and f= 3. The triangle D'E'F' sides are d' = 1, e'= 2 and f'=3. Now we have to find out that both triangles are congruent or not. Here we can easily see that sides of both triangles are same so d = d' = 1, e = e'= 2, f= f'=3 Both triangles are congruent triangle.
