Introduction

Triangles are very extensive in theory and application. Therefore, one tutorial is insufficient to explain all properties of triangles. This tutorial focuses on concepts such as congruence and similarity - concepts that deal with the comparison between triangles. It is a continuation of the previous chapters in a more extended approach.

Congruence and similarity are two important concepts in geometry that describe the relationship between two triangles. Congruence refers to the exact match between two triangles where all the sides and angles are of equal measure. In other words, if two triangles are congruent, they have the same size and shape. On the other hand, similarity refers to the proportionate match between two triangles where the angles are equal but the sides may be of different lengths. In other words, if two triangles are similar, they have the same shape but not necessarily the same size. Both congruence and similarity play an important role in geometry and help us to better understand and analyze geometric figures. Therefore, let's begin to explore this important topic of geometry.
