4-1 Congruent Figures
Geometric figures are congruent if they are the same size and shape. Corresponding anglesand corresponding sides are in the same position in polygons with an equal number of sides.
Two polygons are congruent polygons if and only if their corresponding sides are congruent. Thus triangles that are the same size and shape are congruent.

4-1 Congruent Figures
Two vertices that are the endpoints of a side are called consecutive vertices.
For example, P and Q are consecutive vertices.
Helpful Hint
4-1 Congruent Figures
To name a polygon, write the vertices in consecutive order. For example, you can name polygon PQRS as QRSP or SRQP, but not as PRQS.
In a congruence statement, the order of the vertices indicates the corresponding parts.

When you write a statement such as ABC DEF, you are also stating which parts are congruent.

Example 2B: Using Corresponding Parts of Congruent Triangles
Given: ∆ABC ∆DBC.
Find mDBC.
