Define Congruence, Using Rigid Motions
Read this topicExplanations 2
- Throughout this map, we say two objects are congruent if there exists a rigid motion taking one object to the other, or in other words, if they are "related by an rigid motion" …

- Define Congruence with Rigid Motions \\ Congruent figures are identical--they have the same size and shape. Here is an explanation going into further details defining congruence…

Problems 6
- Are the transformations in the two images above rigid motions?
- Shape A undergoes a couple of transformations consisting of translations and rotations. Is the series of transformations a rigid motion?
- Is the above transformation of triangles a rigid motion?
- Is it possible above to transform one triangle onto the other through a series of rigid motions?
- A geometric shape goes through a series of transformation including reflection, dilation and translation. Are the 'before' and 'after' shapes congruent to each other?
- Are the two triangles congruent? If so, what is the transformation?
