Math Example--Geometric Shapes--Analyzing Congruent Shapes--Example 8 | Math Example--Geometric Shapes--Analyzing Congruent Shapes--Example 8TopicGeometric Shapes DescriptionDetermine if two shapes on a grid are congruent. The shapes appear as two congruent triangles within a diamond shape, with each triangle reflected across the center axis. Using the grid, you can see that corresonding sides are congruent. Therefore, the triangles are congruent. Congruence of shapes is fundamental in geometry as it allows us to establish relationships between figures and understand properties of transformations. This example collection illustrates congruence by analyzing side lengths and angles to determine equivalence. |
