are congruent?
 TRIANGLE CONGRUENCE
If two geometric figures have exactly the
same shape and size, they
are congruent.
In two congruent polygons, all of the
parts of one polygon are congruent to the
corresponding parts or matching parts of
the other polygon. These corresponding
parts include corresponding angles and
corresponding sides.
