Topic 2 Congruence – Mathematics Form Two
In fields like architecture, engineering and design, precise measurements and patterns are crucial. Maintaining such patterns and measurements across objects and designs requires an understanding of the relationship between shapes and their properties.
In this chapter, you will learn about postulates, proofs and theorems on congruence as well as the congruence of triangles. The competencies developed will enable you to solve problems such as determining the dimensions of sides of figures without taking actual measurements, designing and making objects of the same shapes and sizes such as worn-out parts.
The concept of congruence
The term congruence is derived from the Latin word congruentia which means agree or fit together exactly. Engage in Activity to explore the characteristics of objects from real life situations which fit together.
