How to Use Congruent Triangles

Subject: Mathematics

Book: Maths Mastery

Triangles are congruent if they have the same size and shape. Common criteria include Side-Side-Side (SSS), Side-Angle-Side (SAS), Angle-Side-Angle (ASA), Angle-Angle-Side (AAS), and Right Angle-Hypotenuse-Side (RHS). By identifying these conditions, you can conclude that two triangles match exactly in dimensions and angles. Congruence is central to geometric proofs, map overlays, and structural designs requiring precise fits. A strong grasp of these criteria ensures you can prove geometric statements or design congruent sections for architectural or engineering projects accurately.
