  1. 4.4 (M1) Prove Triangles Congruent by SAS & HL

  2. Vocabulary • In a right triangle, the sides adjacent to the right angle are the legs. • The side opposite the right angle is the hypotenuse. • Side-Angle-Side (SAS) Congruence Postulate: If two sides and the included angle of one triangle are congruent to two sides and the included angle of another triangle, the two triangles are congruent.

  3. 1. ABE,CBD ANSWER SAS Post. Is there enough given information to prove the triangles congruent? If there is, state the postulate or theorem.

  4. State a third congruence that would allow you to prove RST XYZ by the SAS Congruence postulate. 3. ST YZ, RS XY ANSWER SY.

  7. Hypotenuse-Leg (HL) Congruence Theorem – If the hypotenuse and one leg of a right triangle are congruent to the hypotenuse and leg of another right triangle, the triangles are congruent.

  8. Tell whether the pair of triangles is congruent or not and why. Yes; HL Thm. ANSWER

  9. 2. FGH,HJK ANSWER HL Thm. Is there enough given information to prove the triangles congruent? If there is, state the postulate or theorem.
