Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

Triangle ABC is congruent to traingle XYZ. It means its corresponding parts are equal.

That is,

AB = XY

BC = YZ

CA = ZX

angle A = angle X

angle B = angle Y

angle C = angle Z

Note that we can also write ABC congruent to XYZ as follows:

BCA congruent to YZX

CAB congruent to ZXY

CBA congruent to ZYX

However, in this case, we cannot say that CBA is congruent to YZX as the corresponding parts may not be equal. AB may not be equal to XZ etc.
