CPCTC can be generalized to polygons via CPCPC

“CPCTC” is an acronym which stands for “corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent.”

See this website for an explanation:

Or this one:

There's a similar abbreviation common in geometry proofs. CPCTC - Corresponding Parts of Congruent Triangles are Congruent. So I assume that this is the obvious generalization -- Corresponding Parts of Congruent Polygons are Congruent.
