Question

Which pairs of triangles can be shown to be congruent using rigid motions?

Select Congruent or Not Congruent for each pair of triangles.

Answer 1

1--- not congruent

2--not congruent

3---congruent

4---congruent

5---not congruent

6---not congruent

Explanation:

This is true because the congruent figures are equal to each other, the not congruent shapes are not congruent because they don't equal each other.(the answers are right but I am quite bad at explaining things)

Answer 2

Two figures are congruent if and only if there exists one or more rigid motions which will map one figure onto the other.

1. Triangles ABC and MNP are not congruent.

2. Triangles ABC and EFG are not congruent

3. Triangles ABC and STU are congruent.

4. Triangles EFG and MNP are congruent.

5. Triangles EFG and STU are not congruent.

6. Triangles STU and MNP are not congruent.
