Congruent Figures

Definition:

In geometry, congruent figures refer to two or more shapes or objects that have the same size and shape. When two figures are congruent, all corresponding sides and angles of one figure will be equal to the corresponding sides and angles of the other figure.

Sample sentences:

1. The two triangles are congruent figures because they have the same side lengths and angle measurements.
2. We learned how to prove if two quadrilaterals are congruent figures by examining their corresponding sides and angles.
3. When studying congruent figures, it is important to note that their positions or orientations in space do not matter as long as their shape and size are identical.
