Introduction
In an earlierlessonyou reviewedmanyof the basicpropertiesof equality. Propertiesof equalityare about
numbers.Anglesand segmentsare not numbers,but their measuresare numbers.Congruenceof angles
and segmentsis definedin termsof thesenumbers.To provecongruenceproperties,we immediatelyturn
