  2. FG, GH, FH, F, G, H Let’s Get It Started . . . 1.Name all sides and angles of ∆FGH. 2. What is true about K and L? Why? 3.What does it mean for two segments to be congruent?  ;Third s Thm. They have the same length.

  3. Objectives Use properties of congruent triangles. Prove triangles congruent by using the definition of congruence.

  4. Vocabulary corresponding angles corresponding sides congruent polygons

  5. Geometric figures are congruent if they are the same size and shape. Corresponding angles and corresponding sides are in the same position in polygons with an equal number of sides. Two polygons are congruent polygons if and only if their corresponding sides are congruent. Thus triangles that are the same size and shape are congruent.

  6. Helpful Hint Two vertices that are the endpoints of a side are called consecutive vertices. For example, P and Q are consecutive vertices.

  7. To name a polygon, write the vertices in consecutive order. For example, you can name polygon PQRS as QRSP or SRQP, but not as PRQS. In a congruence statement, the order of the vertices indicates the corresponding parts.

  8. Naming Polygons Start at any vertex and list the vertices consecutively in a clockwise or counterclockwise direction. D DIANE IANED ANEDI NEDIA EDIAN DENAI ENAID NAIDE AIDEN IDENA E I A N

  9. Helpful Hint When you write a statement such as ABCDEF, you are also stating which parts are congruent.
