Objective • S.W. learn the triangle inequality theorem so that they can determine whether triangles of certain side lengths exist and find the relationship between the sides and angles of a triangle
Triangle Inequality Postulate • The sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle is greater than the length of the third side.
Could this a be Triangle? 7 15 6
Could this be a Triangle? 12 7 5
Conclusion • The largest side of a triangle is opposite the largest angle. • The shortest angle of a triangle is opposite the shortest side.
Do you remember? What is the definition of an isosceles triangle?
Q P ISOSCELES TRIANGLEvocabulary • legs • vertex angle • base • base angles Y
Isosceles Triangle Theorem • If two sides of a triangle are congruent, then the angles opposite those sides are congruent. C B A
??????????????????????? Is the converse true?
Converse Isosceles Triangle Theorem • If two angles of a triangle are congruent, then the sides opposite those angles are congruent.
???????? • What if I bisect the vertex angle, what can you tell me? x 70º
???????? Find base 3x + 3 x2 – 1 9 – x
???????? x 70º
???????? • Find the missing angles x 70º
Objective: To determine ways to prove triangles congruent
Vocabulary • Congruent Polygons-Two polygons are congruent if and only if their vertices can be matched up so that corresponding sides and angles are congruent.
Helpful Hint Two vertices that are the endpoints of a side are called consecutive vertices. For example, P and Q are consecutive vertices.
To name a polygon, write the vertices in consecutive order. For example, you can name polygon PQRS as QRSP or SRQP, but not as PRQS. In a congruence statement, the order of the vertices indicates the corresponding parts.
Helpful Hint When you write a statement such as ABCDEF, you are also stating which parts are congruent.

POSTULATE - SSS POST. • If three sides of one triangle are congruent to three sides of another triangle then the triangles are congruent.
POSTULATE - SAS POST. • If two sides and the included angle of one triangle are congruent to two sides and the included angle of another triangle then the triangles are congruent.
POSTULATE - ASA POST. • If two angles and the included side of one triangle are congruent to two angles and the included side of another triangle then the triangles are congruent.
To determine if triangles are congruent, what would you have to measure? • SSS • SAS • ASA • All sides & all angles.
Which postulate, if any, can be used to prove the triangles congruent? 1. 2.
