Origin of the word congruence

The word "congruence" has its roots in the Latin word "congruere," meaning "to agree, to correspond, to fit together." This Latin term itself derives from the prefix "con-" meaning "together" and "gruere" meaning "to grow, to come together." Over time, "congruence" evolved to signify the concept of agreement or correspondence between two or more things, particularly in mathematical and geometric contexts. It now encompasses the idea of things being identical or coinciding, often in terms of shape, size, and position.
