You didn't explain the difference between equal and congruent? You just showed how to label things.

Thank you, geez I am so sick of people not explaining things in geometry! The problem with math teachers is the guessing game technique.. I realize why I am almost 30 and need to go back over basic math.. it was never explained to me. GRRR... I am so mad at the failure of my education in math. I am great with linguistics but mathematics were lost in translation, how disabling. So thank you very much for taking the time to properly explain it.
