What is your understanding of congruent shapes? What is your understanding of congruence criterion? When you are given two triangles, what can you do to determine if they are congruent? When you are given two triangles, what can you do to determine if they are similar? What is your understanding of \"Corresponding Parts of Congruent Triangles are Congruent?\"

Solution

1. Congruent Shapes: Two shapes are said to be congruent when we can Turn, Flip and/or Slide one shape so it fits exactly on the other..

2. There are three criteris to prove triangles are congruent.

ASA (Angle-Side-Angle): If two pairs of angles of two triangles are equal and a pair of corresponding \\included sides are equal in length, then the triangles are congruent.

SAS (Side-Angle-Side): If two sides and the angle between them are equal, then the triangles are congruent.

SSS(side-side-side) When all three sides are equal of both triangles,  then the triangles are congruent.

3.Check which criteria is satisfied : SAS, SSS or ASA

4.Check whether the corresponding sides of triangles are propotional or not, if they are then we say they are similar.

5. If there are two triangles ABC and PQR, then we say AB = PQ, BC = QR, AC =PR, , angle A =angle P, angle B=angle Q, angle C=angle R
