  13. Angles: Sides: Identify Corresponding Congruent Parts Show that the polygons are congruent by identifying all of the congruent corresponding parts. Then write a congruence statement. Answer: All corresponding parts of the two polygons are congruent. Therefore, ABCDE RTPSQ. Example 1

  14. A. B. C. D. The support beams on the fence form congruent triangles. In the figure ΔABC ΔDEF,which of the following congruence statements correctly identifies corresponding angles or sides? Example 1
