  1. The Congruence Statement ΔABC ≅ΔVPI What does it tell you?

  2. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, SIX! • If the triangles are congruent by SSS, SAS,ASA, AAS, or HL, then three pairs of corresponding parts have been used. • Remember, there are six corresponding parts!

  3. Consider the next proof.., • List off the six corresponding parts. • Check the ones that are used to prove the triangles are congruent. • See the left - overs. • These may be used as congruent by the Definition of Congruent Triangles.

  4. This book uses the expression: • Corresponding Parts of Congruent Triangles are Congruent. • CPCTC

  5. CPCTCstands for… • With SSS, SAS, ASA, and AAS, you know how to use 3 parts of triangles to show that the triangles are congruent. • Once you have triangles congruent you can make conclusions about their other parts because, by definition, corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent. CorrespondingParts of CongruentTriangles are Congruent
