Question

I can’t remember the proper term for when the same line is congruent.
EX: Line DB is congruent to line DB.

jim_thompson5910 · Answer

Any line segment is congruent to itself by the reflexive property

Ex: segment AB = segment AB

I thought reflexive property was line DB is congruent to line BD. I think it has something to do with congruence of same line but I can’t place the mathematical term.

jim_thompson5910 · Answer

BD is DB

to name a line segment, you just list off the two endpoints in any order

nicole143 · Answer

Ok so reflexive is to both DB=DB and DB=BD

nicole143 · Answer

Right?

jim_thompson5910 · Answer

correct, these 4 things say the same thing

DB = BD
DB = DB
BD = BD
BD = DB

and they all basically say that a line segment is congruent to itself by the reflexive property
