Note on Congruent Triangles

we were been trying to understand more on number sense and now.. let me help you understand on congruent Triangles.

Introduction:

The triangles are said to be congruent when all the subsequent sides and interior angles are congruent. The triangles will have same shape and size, but one may be a mirror image of other in the definition of triangles

Congruent Triangles:
Probably the most generally used example of congruence is the congruence of two triangles. Congruence in triangles is able to be proven using one of several rules. The rules for the definition of congruent triangles include side-angle-side, angle-side-angle, side-side-side, or angle-angle-side. The below definition gives the meaning of the congruent triangles.

  • Side-angle-side – If the two sides and the included angle of one triangle are said to be congruent to two sides and the included angle of another triangle, the triangles are congruent.
  • Angle-angle-side – If the two sides and then a non-included angle of one triangle are congruent to two sides and a non-included angle of another triangle, the triangles are congruent
Now you got an good understanding on congruent triangles. keep reading and leave your comments... may be on the next lesson.. let me share my knowledge on Examples of Congruent Triangles.
