  1. Use Isosceles and Equilateral Triangles Warm Up Lesson Presentation Lesson Quiz

  2. equilateral scalene ANSWER ANSWER isosceles ANSWER Warm-Up Classify each triangle by its sides. 1. 2 cm, 2 cm, 2 cm 2. 7 ft, 11 ft, 7 ft 3. 9 m, 8 m, 10 m

  3. 5. In ∆DEF, ifm D = m E andm F = 26º, What are the measure of D and E 77º, 77º ANSWER 4. In ∆ABC, ifm A = 70º andm B = 50º, what ism C? 60º ANSWER Warm-Up

  4. DE DF, so by the Base Angles Theorem, E F. Example 1 In DEF, DEDF. Name two congruent angles. SOLUTION

  5. If KHJKJH, then ?? . If KHJKJH, then ?? . If HG HK, then ?? . ANSWER HGK, HKG ANSWER KH, KJ Guided Practice Copy and complete each statement.

  6. Find the measures of P, Q, and R. The diagram shows that PQRis equilateral. Therefore, by the Corollary to the Base Angles Theorem, PQRis equiangular. So, m P = m Q = m R. o 3(m P) = 180 Triangle Sum Theorem o m P = 60 Divide each side by 3. ANSWER The measures of P, Q, and Rare all 60°. Example 2

  7. Find STin the triangle at the right. Is it possible for an equilateral triangle to have an angle measure other than 60°? Explain. ANSWER No; The Triangle Sum Theorem and the fact that the triangle is equilateral guarantees the angles measure 60° because all pairs of angles could be considered base angles of an isosceles triangle. ANSWER 5 Guided Practice

  8. Find the values of x and yin the diagram. ALGEBRA STEP 1 Find the value of y. Because KLNis equiangular, it is also equilateral and KN KL. Therefore, y = 4. Example 3 SOLUTION

  9. STEP 2 Find the value of x. Because LNM LMN, LN LMand LMNis isosceles. You also know that LN = 4 because KLNis equilateral. Example 3 LN = LM Definition of congruent segments 4 = x + 1 Substitute 4 for LNand x + 1 for LM. 3 = x Subtract 1 from each side.

  10. In the lifeguard tower, PS QRand QPS PQR. What congruence postulate can you use to prove that QPS PQR? Draw and label QPSand PQRso that they do not overlap. You can see that PQ QP, PS  QR, and QPS PQR. So, by the SASPostulate, QPS PQR. Example 4 Lifeguard Tower SOLUTION

  11. In the lifeguard tower, PS QRand QPS PQR. Explain why PQTis isosceles. From part (a), you know that 1 2 because corresp. parts of are . By the Converse of the Base Angles Theorem, PT QT, and PQTis isosceles. Example 4 Lifeguard Tower SOLUTION

  12. You know that PS QR, and 3 4 because corresp. parts of are . Also, PTS QTRby the Vertical Angles Congruence Theorem. So, In the lifeguard tower, PS QRand QPS PQR. PTS QTRby the AAS Congruence Theorem. Show thatPTS QTR. Example 4 Lifeguard Tower SOLUTION

  13. Find the values of x and yin the diagram. ANSWER x = 60 y = 120 Guided Practice

  14. Use parts (b) and (c) in Example 4 and the SSS Congruence Postulate to give a different proof that PTS QTR ANSWER By the Segment Addition PostulateQT + TS=QSandPT + TR=PR. SincePTQTfrom part (b) andTSTRfrom part (c), thenQSPR. PQPQby the Reflexive Property and it is given thatPSQR, thereforeQPSPQRby the SSS Congruence Postulate. Guided Practice
