Learning Objectives:

I can recognize congruent figures and


their corresponding parts.
I can prove triangles congruent using
SSS and SAS.
I can prove triangles congruent using
ASA and AAS.
Similar and Congruent Figures
Similar and Congruent Figures

 Similar figures have the same shape, but


not the same size. They must have the
same ratio of side lengths
 Congruent figures have the same shape
and the same size
 Corresponding parts are the sides or
angles that have the same position.
 The symbol means that the
shapes are similar

 The symbol means that the


shapes are congruent

What is the ratio of the sides?

What is the length of side AB? What is the length of side EH?
Congruence
Two geometric figures with exactly the same size
and shape.
Corresponding Parts
If all six pairs of corresponding parts
(sides and angles) are congruent,
then the triangles are congruent.
