If RST=NPQ, then RT is congruent to •NP •NQ •PA •QP

Directrix (directrix):

When a triangle congruence statement is written, the corresponding vertices are written in order. △RST ≅ △NPQ , then if one of the triangles were superimposed on the other so that they coincided, R would fall on N, S on P, and T on Q. Seg RT would be congruent to which segment? @John.L Post what you think and we'll compare answers, okay?

NQ, right?

@Directrix

Directrix (directrix):

>>> Correct

OpenStudy (danjs):

is that a rule that you must order the vertices to match corresponding angles for similarity/congruence?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thank you @Directrix

Directrix (directrix):

>>is that a rule that you must order the vertices Yes.

OpenStudy (danjs):

oh, for a statement yeah i guess

OpenStudy (danjs):

lol sorry

@John.L You are welcome.
