If triangle ABC is congruent to triangle bcd then triangles ABC and bcd are what kinds of triangles?

The 2 triangles can be of any type (e.g isosceles, equilateral, etc.), only they must be exactly the same if they are congruent, i.e one triangle must be an exact copy of the other one.

How do you find a triangle congruent by cpctc?
A triangle if not found congruent by CPCTC as CPCTC only applies to triangles proven to be congruent. If triangle ABC is congruent to triangle DEF because they have the same side lengths (SSS) then we know Angle ABC (angle B) is congruent to Angle DEF (Angle E)
Does isometery preserve angle measure?
Yes. if triangle ABC maps to triangle A'B'C'. then AB = A'B', BC = B'C' and AC = A'C'. By SSS, triangle ABC is congruent to triangle A'B'C'. Since corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent angle A = angle A'. The correct spelling of the term for a length preserving transformation is "isometry" not "isometery".
How can you prove a triangle ABC is isosceles if angle BAD is congruent to angle CAD and line AD is perpendicular to line Bc?
Given: AD perpendicular to BC; angle BAD congruent to CAD Prove: ABC is isosceles Plan: Principle a.s.a Proof: 1. angle BAD congruent to angle CAD (given) 2. Since AD is perpendicular to BC, then the angle BDA is congruent to the angle CDA (all right angles are congruent). 3. AD is congruent to AD (reflexive property) 4. triangle BAD congruent to triangle CAD (principle a.s.a) 5. AB is congruent to AC (corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent) 6. triangle ABC is isosceles (it has two congruent sides)
What is LL Congruence Theorem and give example?
"If two legs of one right triangle are congruent to the corresponding legs of another right triangle, then the two triangles are congruent."Example:Given:
What is CPCTC?
CPCTC stands for Corresponding Parts of Congruent Triangles are Congruent.Here are some examples that I hope can help you throughExample 1:Let's say that Triangle ABC has these measures:Let's also say that Triangle DEF has the measures:Then you know that angle C is congruent to angle F through CPCTC.Example 2:Let's say that Triangle ABC has these measures:Let's also say that Triangle DEF has the measures:Then you know that side CA is congruent to side FD through CPCTC.Example 3:Let's say that Triangle ABC has these measures:Let's also say that Triangle DEF has these measures:Then you know that side AC is congruent to DF through CPCTC.You also know that angle C is congruent to angle F through CPCTC.You also know that angle A is congruent to angle D through CPCTC.

Mathematics similarities of triangles?
Two triangles are considered to be similar if for each angles in one triangle, there is a congruent angle in the other triangle.Two triangles ABC and A'B'C' are similar if the three angles of the first triangle are congruent to the corresponding three angles of the second triangle and the lengths of their corresponding sides are proportional as follows: AB / A'B' = BC / B'C' = CA / C'A'

How can you prove triangles ABC and DEF are congruent?
They are congruent when they have 3 identical dimensions and 3 identical interior angles.

How do i prove if the base angles of a triangle are congruent then the triangle is isosceles?
Suppose you have triangle ABC with base BC, and angle B = angle C. Draw the altitude AD.Considers triangles ABD and ACDangle ABD = angle ACD (given)angle ADB = 90 deg = angle ACDtherefore angle BAD = angle CADAlso the side AD is common to the two triangles.Therefore triangle ABD is congruent to triangle ACD (ASA) and so AB = AC.That is, triangle ABC is isosceles.
What are congruence theorems and postulates?
If the sides AB, BC and CA of triangle ABC correspond to the sides DE, EF and FD of triangle DEF, then the two triangles are congruent if:AB = DE, BC = EF and CA = FD (SSS)AB = DE, BC = EF and angle ABC = angle DEF (SAS)AB = DE, angle ABC = angle DEF, angle BCA = angle EFD (ASA)If the triangles are right angled at A and D so that BC and EF are hypotenuses, then the triangles are congruent ifBC = EF and AB = DE (RHS)BC = EF and angle ABC = angle DEF (RHA).
What coordinate for F would make triangle ABC and triangle DEF congruent?
