CPCTC stands for "Corresponding Parts of Congruent Triangles are Congruent." It is a theorem used in geometry to prove that two triangles are congruent. It is used when two triangles have three pairs of corresponding sides and angles that are congruent.
Used to be called SSS, probably still is.
If corresponding sides of the two triangles are equal, then you don't
actually care about the angles.
