Question

A sequence of transformations which moves ΔABC onto ΔDEF shows that ΔABC ≅ ΔDEF. Which part of the triangles are congruent by CPCTC?

Answer 1

AB ≅ DE

Step-by-step explanation:

CPCTC (Corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent) is a theorem stating that if two triangles are congruent,

then all the corresponding parts are congruent.

Answer 2

AB ≅ DE, BC ≅ EF and CA ≅ FD are the corresponding congruent sides.

Explanation:

CPCTC means "Corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent".

If two triangles ΔABC and ΔDEF are congruent, then their corresponding sides will be equal.

Transformations (rotations, reflection and translation) of congruent triangles hardly makes any difference.

Therefore, AB ≅ DE, BC ≅ EF and CA ≅ FD are the corresponding congruent sides.
