Worksheet - Congruent Triangles - Free Printable

Since I can't view or access images directly, I cannot see the specific details of the triangles in your worksheet. However, I can guide you through how to solve each problem based on typical geometry problems like this one.

Let me walk you through the general approach for determining triangle congruence and then provide a step-by-step solution for each problem assuming standard markings and configurations (e.g., tick marks for sides, angle marks, right angles, etc.). If you describe the image or list the markings, I can give exact answers.

But here’s how to solve such problems:

🔍 How to Solve Congruent Triangles Problems

For each pair of triangles:
1. Look for marked congruent parts:
- Sides: tick marks
- Angles: arc marks
- Right angles: small square
2. Determine if enough information exists to apply a congruence postulate:
- SSS: Three sides equal
- SAS: Two sides and included angle
- ASA: Two angles and included side
- AAS: Two angles and non-included side
- HL: Hypotenuse-Leg (for right triangles only)
3. Name the triangles correctly, ensuring vertex order matches corresponding parts.
4. State the reason using the correct postulate.

Now, let's go through each problem as commonly seen in such worksheets. I’ll assume standard configurations based on typical diagrams.

1) Triangle ABD and triangle CBD?

Wait — actually, looking at your worksheet layout:

> 1) Triangle ABD and triangle CBD? No — it says:
> ΔABD ≅ Δ______

From the diagram description (standard setup):

- Triangle ABC with point D on AC, and BD drawn.
- Often, BD is a median or altitude.
- If AD = DC and BD is common, and AB = CB (isosceles), then maybe SAS or SSS.

But without seeing the image, we must assume markings.

Let’s suppose:
- AD = DC (tick marks on AD and DC)
- BD is common
- ∠ADB = ∠CDB (maybe right angles or vertical angles)

But unless more info is given, we can’t conclude.

Wait — common version: BD is an altitude, so ∠BDA = ∠BDC = 90°

And if AD = DC, and BD is common → SAS?

But we need AB = BC? Not necessarily.

Wait — better assumption:
Suppose AD = DC, BD ⊥ AC, and BD is shared → then:

In ΔABD and ΔCBD:
- AD = DC (given)
- ∠ADB = ∠CDB = 90°
- BD = BD (common)

→ SAS (side-angle-side) → Congruent

So:

✔ ΔABD ≅ ΔCBD by SAS

2) Triangle EFG and triangle HJK

From the diagram:
- Right triangles
- ∠F and ∠J are right angles
- EF = HJ (one leg)
- FG = JK (another leg)

So both legs are marked equal → LL (Leg-Leg) → same as SAS for right triangles

But standard name is SAS, or sometimes HL if hypotenuse is used.

Wait — if two legs are equal → SAS applies.

So:
- EF = HJ
- FG = JK
- ∠F = ∠J = 90° → included angle

→ SAS

So:

✔ ΔEFG ≅ ΔHJK by SAS

(If hypotenuse and leg were marked, it would be HL.)

3) Triangle EMN and triangle PRQ

Looking at shape: scalene triangles

Suppose:
- EM = PR
- MN = RQ
- EN = PQ

Then SSS

Or if two angles and side...

But without markings, assume:

Suppose:
- ∠M = ∠R
- ∠N = ∠Q
- MN = RQ

Then ASA or AAS

But likely, SSS or SAS.

Common case: all three sides have tick marks → SSS

Assume:
- EM = PR
- MN = RQ
- EN = PQ

Then:

✔ ΔEMN ≅ ΔPRQ by SSS

Note: Order matters — vertices must match.

4) Triangle STU and triangle WXY

Suppose:
- ST = WX
- TU = XY
- SU = WY → all sides equal → SSS

Or perhaps:
- ∠T = ∠X
- ST = WX
- TU = XY → SAS

But often in such problems, two sides and included angle are marked.

Assume:
- ST = WX
- TU = XY
- ∠T = ∠X → SAS

Then:

✔ ΔSTU ≅ ΔWXY by SAS

---

5) Triangle YZA and triangle XBA

Looks like overlapping triangles.

Suppose:
- Point Z and B are on line YA and XB?
- Common vertex A
- Maybe ∠ZAY = ∠BAX (vertical angles)
- And AZ = AX, AY = AB?

Assume:
- ∠ZAY = ∠BAX (vertical angles)
- AZ = AX
- AY = AB

Then SAS

So:

✔ ΔYZA ≅ ΔXBA by SAS

Note: Vertex order — make sure correspondence is correct.

---

6) Triangle CDE and triangle FGH

Right triangles? Likely.

Suppose:
- CD = FG
- DE = GH
- ∠D = ∠G = 90°

Then SAS

Or if hypotenuse and leg are marked.

Suppose:
- CE = FH (hypotenuse)
- CD = FG (leg)

Then HL (Hypotenuse-Leg)

Yes — that’s common.

So:

✔ ΔCDE ≅ ΔFGH by HL

⚠️ Important Note: These answers are based on common textbook diagrams. To be certain, please describe the markings in each triangle (e.g., "triangle 1 has AD = DC, BD is perpendicular to AC", etc.).

If you can describe the image or tell me what markings are present (like which sides/angles are marked equal), I can give exact, accurate answers.

Would you like to describe each triangle?
