Congruence of Triangles
Congruence of Triangle
Congruence means that one figure will exactly superimpose the other figure. Two congruent line segments have the same length and conversely two lines segments of equal length are congruent. or we can say that two line segments are congruent if and only if their lengths are equal. Similarly two angles are congruent if and only if their measures are equal, or we can say that two angles BAC and EDF are congruent if m
Two triangles are congruent if and only if one of them can be made to superpose on the other, so as to cover it exactly. Let be two congruent triangles. Then, we can superpose
on
, so as to cover it exactly. In such a superposition the vertices of
will fall on the vertices of
, in some order. Let us assume that the vertex A falls on vertex D, vertex B on vertex E and vertex C on vertex F.
Then, side AB falls on DE, BC on EF and CA on FD. Also superposes on the corresponding angle
and
. Thus, the order in which the vertices match, automatically determines a correspondence between the sides and angles of the two triangles. And, if the superposition is exact i.e. the triangles are congruent, the corresponding sides and angles are congruent. Consequently, we get six equalities three of the corresponding sides and three of the corresponding angles. If
superposes on
exactly such that the vertices of
fall on the vertices of
in the following order

Then, we have the following six qualities |

Congruence Relation
From the definition of congruence of two triangles, we obtain the following results:
(i) Every triangle is congruent to itself i.e.,
(ii) If , then
(iii) If , and
, then
Note: It is important to write the correspondence of vertices correctly for writing of congruence of triangles in symbolic form because but
and the symbolic form is used to write corresponding parts of congruent triangles {C.P.C.T.}

Students / Parents Reviews [10]
My experience was very good with Abhyas academy. I am studying here from 6th class and I am satisfied by its results in my life. I improved a lot here ahead of school syllabus.
Ayan Ghosh
8thIt was good as the experience because as we had come here we had been improved in a such envirnment created here.Extra is taught which is beneficial for future.
Eshan Arora
8thMy experience with Abhyas is very good. I have learnt many things here like vedic maths and reasoning also. Teachers here first take our doubts and then there are assignments to verify our weak points.
Shivam Rana
7thI have spent a wonderful time in Abhyas academy. It has made my reasoning more apt, English more stronger and Maths an interesting subject for me. It has given me a habbit of self studying
Yatharthi Sharma
10thBeing a parent, I saw my daughter improvement in her studies by seeing a good result in all day to day compititive exam TMO, NSO, IEO etc and as well as studies. I have got a fruitful result from my daughter.
Prisha Gupta
8thAbhyas is a complete education Institute. Here extreme care is taken by teacher with the help of regular exam. Extra classes also conducted by the institute, if the student is weak.
Om Umang
10thOne of the best institutes to develope a child interest in studies.Provides SST and English knowledge also unlike other institutes. Teachers are co operative and friendly online tests andPPT develope practical knowledge also.
Aman Kumar Shrivastava
10thIt has a great methodology. Students here can get analysis to their test quickly.We can learn easily through PPTs and the testing methods are good. We know that where we have to practice
Barkha Arora
10thAbhyas Methodology is very good. It is based on according to student and each child manages accordingly to its properly. Methodology has improved the abilities of students to shine them in future.
Manish Kumar
10thIt was a good experience with Abhyas Academy. I even faced problems in starting but slowly and steadily overcomed. Especially reasoning classes helped me a lot.
