Question

If ΔMNO ≅ ΔXYZ, then what corresponding parts are congruent?

∠M and ∠Z
segment MN and segment ZX
∠N and ∠Y
segment NO and segment YX

Answer 1

In congruent triangles ΔMNO and ΔXYZ, the corresponding congruent parts are ∠M to ∠X, segment MN to segment XY, ∠N to ∠Y, and segment NO to segment YZ. The4refore correct option is C

Step-by-step explanation:

When two triangles are congruent, such as ΔMNO ≅ ΔXYZ, it means that every corresponding pair of angles and sides are equal in measurement.

Familiarizing ourselves with the concept of congruent triangles, we match each vertex of ΔMNO with the corresponding vertex of ΔXYZ based on the order they are listed in the congruence statement.

The congruent parts are therefore:

∠M is congruent to ∠X

Segment MN is congruent to Segment XY

∠N is congruent to ∠Y

Segment NO is congruent to Segment YZ

Remember that in congruent triangles, the corresponding parts follow the order of the vertices as they appear in the congruency statement.
