4.3 Congruent Polygons
Congruent Shapes • Corresponding Angles are congruent • Corresponding Sides are congruent
Important ! • When making a congruency statement, you are saying which parts are congruent. • EX.
Sides: PQ ST, QR TW, PR SW Example 2: Naming Congruent Corresponding Parts Given: ∆PQR ∆STW Identify all pairs of corresponding congruent parts. Angles: P S, Q T, R W
Example 2A: Using Corresponding Parts of Congruent Triangles Given: ∆ABC ∆DBC. Find the value of x.
Example 2B: Using Corresponding Parts of Congruent Triangles Given: ∆ABC ∆DBC. Find mDBC.
Given:YWXandYWZ are right angles. YW bisects XYZ. W is the midpoint of XZ. XY YZ. Prove: ∆XYW ∆ZYW
5.1 • Congruent Triangles
The diagram shows part of the support structure for a tower. Use SAS to explain why ∆XYZ ∆VWZ.
