Corresponding parts Corresponding parts of congruent trianglesof congruent triangles
Triangles that are the same size and shape are congruent triangles.
Each triangle has three angles and three sides. If all six corresponding parts are congruent, then the triangles are congruent.

Use a protractor to measure the angles of the triangles. You will find that the measures are the same.
Answer: The lengths of the corresponding sides of two triangles are equal. Therefore, by the definition of congruence,
In conclusion, because ,
