Congruence
These are the Properties of Congruence.
Reflective Property of Congruence, Symmetric Property of Congruence, Transitive Property of Congruence
∠A ≅∠A
Reflective Property of Congruence
If ∠A ≅∠B, then ∠B ≅∠A
Symmetric Property of Congruence
If ∠A ≅ ∠B, ∠B ≅ ∠C, then ∠A ≅ ∠C
Transitive Property of Congruence
Mathematically speaking, the symbol ↔️ means corresponds to.
