If you are able to give the names of the different angles you may now
continue with this lesson. If not, review your lesson with the different kinds of
angles.
In this lesson, you are going to learn how to identify congruent angles.
Make sure that you pay attention with the illustrations and the explanations.

Look at angle ABC and angle XYZ. Measure their angles using a
protractor. Do they have the same measure? How many degrees does each
angle have? If their measures are both 90°, they are congruent. All right
angles are congruent since they all measure 90°. We write it this way:
∠ABC ≅ ∠XYZ. We read it, ∠ABC is congruent to angle ∠XYZ.
