This document discusses congruence in geometry. It defines congruent figures as those where corresponding sides are equal in length and corresponding angles are equal in measure. The conditions for congruence are: (1) all sides of one figure are equal to the corresponding sides of the other, (2) the angles of one figure are equal to the corresponding angles of the other, and (3) the shapes of both figures are the same. Methods for proving triangles are congruent include side-side-side, side-angle-side, and angle-side-angle. An example problem demonstrates using corresponding angles and sides to prove two triangles are congruent.

7. Example
Answer:
We prove it based on the
condition, that we have learn
before. We look for the same
C
B
sign: E
• <CAE equal to <EBD
• CE equal to ED A
• <CEA equal to <BED (It hasn’t D
sign, but it’s vertical angles
Prove that ACE and BDE
The Conclusion: ACE are congruent
and BDE are congruent
