5.7 CPCTC

1. CPCTC stands for "Corresponding Parts of Congruent Triangles are Congruent". 2. It means that if two triangles are proven to be congruent, then corresponding parts of those triangles are also congruent. 3. The document provides examples of using CPCTC to prove that different parts of congruent triangles are also congruent after establishing the triangles are congruent using properties like ASA, SSS, etc.

 CPCTC:
“Corresponding Parts of Congruent Triangles
are Congruent”

*You must prove that the


triangles are congruent before
you can use CPCTC*
This is the progression of your
proofs
