It is a bit difficult to determine it by mere observation.
One may think of usingi) divider ii) a trace paper oriii) drawing the figures on the plane paper and cut along the boundary and superpose the pieces.
Such method of Superposition is not a proper way to determine it.
We say figures of the same shape and size are congruent figures.

Association with real number and congruencyWe associate a unique real number with the figures of the same type, which helps to determine the congruency.
(i) The real number associated with the segment is its length and that associated with angle is its measure.
We know l(AB) = l (CD) seg AB ≈ seg CDand m ABC = m PQR
(ii) To determine the congruency of triangles, we suggest on activity leading to the concept of one to one correspondence.

There are six different ways of putting one triangle cover the other i.e. six different one to one correspondence between the vertices of the triangles.
ABC ↔ PQR , ABC ↔ QPR , ABC ↔ QRPABC ↔ RQP , ABC ↔ RPQ , ABC ↔ PRQ
Out of six different one to one correspondences between the vertices of triangles if there exist at least one, in which triangles cover each other exactly than we say the triangles are congruent.
![Page 7: Triangles ix](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022081521/554a84e8b4c90579288b579c/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Congruent TrianglesOut of the six one to one correspondence between the vertices of two triangles, if there exist at-least one, one to one correspondence such that, the sides and angles of one triangle are congruent to corresponding sides and angles of other triangle then the triangles are said to be congruent with respect to that correspondence and the property known as congruence.
![Page 8: Triangles ix](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022081521/554a84e8b4c90579288b579c/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
We haveABC ↔ QPR such that i ) A ≈ Q ii ) B ≈ P iii ) C ≈ R iv) side AB ≈ side QP v) side BC ≈ side PR vi) side AC ≈ side QR
then ∆ABC ≈ ∆ QPR i.e. To determine the congruency of triangle we require the six conditions.
But do we really need all the six condition?
![Page 9: Triangles ix](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022081521/554a84e8b4c90579288b579c/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Sufficient conditions for congruency of the triangles
Three out of six conditions if property chosen are sufficient to determine the congruency of the two triangles. When these three conditions are satisfied then the other three automatically get satisfied, hence the triangles become congruent. This fact was first proved by Euclid the father of Geometry.
These sufficient conditions are referred as SAS, SSS, ASA, SAA tests.
SAS test is taken for granted i.e. accepted as postulate and other are proved.
![Page 10: Triangles ix](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022081521/554a84e8b4c90579288b579c/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Activity : Verification of SAS Test :i) Construct ∆ABC and ∆ PQR of the given measures as shown in the fig.
ii) Cut the triangular pieces along the boundary.
iii) Place triangular piece ABC over triangular piece DEF such that A fall on D and AB falls along DE.
iv) Since AB = DF , so B falls on E
v) Since A = D , so AC will fall along DF
vi) But AC = DFC will fall on F Thus AC will coincide with DF and BC will coincide with EF ∆ ABC coincides with ∆ DEFHence ∆ ABC ≈ ∆ DEF

Included Angle is a must for SAS Test :Activity :’
i) Construct another ∆DEF of the same measures i.e. EF = 5 cm, ED = 3.8 cm, C = 450
ii) See, we get two different triangles of the same measures. ∆ABC ≈ ∆DEF ∆ABC ≈ ∆D‘EF ∆DEF ≈ ∆D’EF
i.e. if the angle is not included then the triangles may or may not be congruent.

Isosceles Triangle Theorem and its Converse In ∆ABC , seg AB ≈ seg BC C = A Here we suggest activity for the verificationi) Construct ∆ABC where AB = BC

Think it overThe proof of 300 - 600 - 900 theorem is
given i.e. in 300 - 600 - 900 triangle, length of side opposite to angle 300 is half the hypotenuse.i) In turn it is asked to find the length of side
opposite to angle 600
ii) Again it is asked to modify the theorem.iii) Think it over the converse of 300 - 600 -900
theorem.

Think it over
Do we really need two different tests ASA and SAA, for congruency?
When two angles of triangle are congruent with corresponding two angles of another triangle, then the third pair also becomes congruent.
Hence actually we do not need two different tests ASA and SAA.

Proof : Point M is on angle bisector of C-------- (Construction) LM = NM ------- (i) Point M is on perpendicular bisector of seg AB -------- (Construction) AM = MB ------- (ii)∆LMA ≈ ∆NMB ------- (side hyp. theorem) LA = NB ----------- (c.s.c.t.) ------- (iii)Similarly ∆LMC ≈ ∆NMC LC = NC ----------- (c.s.c.t.) ------- (iv)Adding (iii) and (iv)LA + LC = NB + NCAC = CBHence provedFind the fallacy in the above proof.
