Two geometric objects are said to be congruent if they have the same shape and size. If A and B are two congruent objects, it's expressed as

The part of a line that lies between two points on that line

A measure of the separation between two rays which share a common starting point

A figure moved along a straight line without rotating it or changing its shape

When a figure is moved along a straight line without being rotated

A three-dimensional object that takes up space
