Corresponding Parts of Congruent Triangles are Congruent(CPCTC)

Once two triangles are proven to be congruent, then every side and angle will also be congruent.

New cards
77

Triangle Midsegment Theorem

Each side of a triangle has a midpoint. When you connect this midpoint, another triangle can be formed. Each side of this new triangle will be parallel to a side in the overall triangle. This means, that whatever the length of the larger triangle side is, the midsegment counterpart will be half of that + vice-versa.

Angle Bisector Theorem

If a point is on the bisector of an angle, then it is equidistant from the two sides of the angle.

New cards
81

Converse of the Angle Bisector Theorem

If a point is in the interior of an angle and it is equidistant from the two sides of the angle, then it lies on the bisector of the angle.
