Math Problem Statement

What is always true about congruent segments?

Solution

The question is asking, "What is always true about congruent segments?"

Congruent segments are line segments that have the same length, regardless of their position, orientation, or whether they overlap or not. The correct answer in this context is "They have the same length" (the blue option).

Would you like more details on why this is true or any further clarifications?

Here are 5 related questions to expand your understanding:

  1. How do you prove two line segments are congruent?
  2. Can two segments with different slopes still be congruent?
  3. What is the difference between congruent segments and parallel segments?
  4. How does the concept of congruent segments apply in geometry proofs?
  5. Can congruent segments have different endpoints?

Tip: Congruence in geometry always refers to the equivalence of size and shape, not their position or orientation.
