Answer

Congruent figures are figures that have the same shape and the same size. They can be placed on each other to cover completely. Examples: Two coins of same denomination, two bangles of same size, moul

Card 2Congruence of Triangles

When are two triangles said to be congruent?

Answer

Two triangles are congruent if all corresponding sides and all corresponding angles are equal. This means one triangle can be placed exactly over the other to cover it completely. We write △ABC ≅ △PQR

Card 3Congruence of Triangles

What does CPCT stand for and what does it mean?

Answer

CPCT stands for 'Corresponding Parts of Congruent Triangles'. It means that if two triangles are congruent, then their corresponding sides are equal and their corresponding angles are equal.

Card 4Criteria for Congruence

State the SAS congruence rule.

Answer

SAS (Side-Angle-Side) Congruence Rule: Two triangles are congruent if two sides and the included angle of one triangle are equal to the two sides and the included angle of the other triangle. The angl

Card 5Criteria for Congruence

State the ASA congruence rule.

Answer

ASA (Angle-Side-Angle) Congruence Rule: Two triangles are congruent if two angles and the included side of one triangle are equal to two angles and the included side of the other triangle. The side mu

Card 6Criteria for Congruence

What is the AAS congruence rule?

Answer

AAS (Angle-Angle-Side) Congruence Rule: Two triangles are congruent if any two pairs of angles and one pair of corresponding sides are equal. This works because if two angles are equal, the third angl

Card 7Criteria for Congruence

Why is equality of three angles not sufficient for triangle congruence?

Answer

Equality of three angles is not sufficient for congruence because triangles with same angles can have different sizes. For example, all triangles with angles 40°, 50°, and 90° are similar but not nece

Card 8Properties of Triangles

What is an isosceles triangle? State its important property.

Answer

An isosceles triangle is a triangle in which two sides are equal. Important property: In an isosceles triangle, the angles opposite to the equal sides are equal. If AB = AC, then ∠B = ∠C.
