In math, congruent means that two or more shapes have the same shape and size). This means that they can be placed precisely over each other, even when flipped, turned, or rotated. The symbol for congruence is ‘≅’ . Congruence can be applied to line segments, angles, and figures. For example, two line segments are congruent if they are equal in length. Two angles are congruent if they have the same measure). Two triangles are congruent if their corresponding sides and angles are equal. Congruent figures can be seen if they can be placed exactly over each other. The word "congruent" means "exactly equal" in terms of shape and size.
