An auxiliary line is a line that is added to a figure to aid in a proof. An auxiliary line used in the Triangle Sum Theorem
A corollary is a theorem whose proof follows directly from another theorem. Here are two corollaries to the Triangle Sum Theorem.
The interior is the set of all points inside the figure. The exterior is the set of all points outside the figure. Exterior Interior
An interior angle is formed by two sides of a triangle. An exterior angle is formed by one side of the triangle and extension of an adjacent side. 4 is an exterior angle. Exterior Interior 3 is an interior angle.
Each exterior angle has two remote interior angles. A remote interior angle is an interior angle that is not adjacent to the exterior angle. 4 is an exterior angle. Exterior The remote interior angles of 4 are 1 and 2. Interior 3 is an interior angle.
Example 3: Applying the Exterior Angle Theorem Find mB. mA + mB = mBCD Ext. Thm. Substitute 15 for mA, 2x + 3 for mB, and 5x – 60 for mBCD. 15 + 2x + 3= 5x – 60 2x + 18= 5x – 60 Simplify. Subtract 2x and add 60 to both sides. 78 = 3x 26 = x Divide by 3. mB = 2x + 3 = 2(26) + 3 = 55°
Example 3 Find mACD. mACD = mA + mB Ext. Thm. Substitute 6z – 9 for mACD, 2z + 1 for mA, and 90 for mB. 6z – 9 = 2z + 1+ 90 6z – 9= 2z + 91 Simplify. Subtract 2z and add 9 to both sides. 4z = 100 z = 25 Divide by 4. mACD = 6z – 9 = 6(25) – 9 = 141°
Example 4 Find mP and mT. P T Third s Thm. mP = mT Def. of s. 2x2= 4x2 – 32 Substitute 2x2 for mP and 4x2 – 32 for mT. –2x2 = –32 Subtract 4x2 from both sides. x2 = 16 Divide both sides by -2. So mP = 2x2 = 2(16) = 32°. Since mP = mT,mT =32°.
Practice 1. Find mABD. 2. Find mN and mP. 124° 75°; 75°
Congruent Triangles Holt Geometry Lesson Presentation Holt McDougal Geometry
Geometric figures are congruent if they are the same size and shape. Corresponding angles and corresponding sides are in the same position in polygons with an equal number of sides. Two polygons are congruent polygons if and only if their corresponding sides are congruent. Thus triangles that are the same size and shape are congruent.
Helpful Hint When you write a statement such as ABCDEF, you are also stating which parts are congruent.
Sides: PQ ST, QR TW, PR SW EXAMPLE Given: ∆PQR ∆STW Identify all pairs of corresponding congruent parts. Angles: P S, Q T, R W
Sides: LM EF, MN FG, NP GH, LP EH Example 1 If polygon LMNP polygon EFGH, identify all pairs of corresponding congruent parts. Angles: L E, M F, N G, P H

Example 2B Given: ∆ABC ∆DBC. Find mDBC. ∆ Sum Thm. mABC + mBCA + mA = 180° Substitute values for mBCA and mA. mABC + 90 + 49.3 = 180 Simplify. mABC + 139.3 = 180 Subtract 139.3 from both sides. mABC = 40.7 DBC ABC Corr. s of ∆s are . mDBC = mABC Def. of s. mDBC 40.7° Trans. Prop. of =
Example 3 AB DE Given: ∆ABC ∆DEF Find the value of x. Corr. sides of ∆s are. AB = DE Def. of parts. Substitute values for AB and DE. 2x – 2 = 6 Add 2 to both sides. 2x = 8 x = 4 Divide both sides by 2.
Example 4 Given: ∆ABC ∆DEF Find mF. ∆ Sum Thm. mEFD + mDEF + mFDE = 180° ABC DEF Corr. s of ∆are . mABC = mDEF Def. of s. mDEF = 53° Transitive Prop. of =. Substitute values for mDEF and mFDE. mEFD + 53 + 90 = 180 mF + 143 = 180 Simplify. mF = 37° Subtract 143 from both sides.

Triangle Congruence: SSS and SAS Holt Geometry Lesson Presentation Holt McDougal Geometry
For example, you only need to know that two triangles have three pairs of congruent corresponding sides. This can be expressed as the following postulate.
It is given that AC DC and that AB DB. By the Reflexive Property of Congruence, BC BC. Therefore ∆ABC ∆DBC by SSS. Example 1: Using SSS to Prove Triangle Congruence Use SSS to explain why ∆ABC ∆DBC.
An included angle is an angle formed by two adjacent sides of a polygon. B is the included angle between sides AB and BC.
Caution The letters SAS are written in that order because the congruent angles must be between pairs of congruent corresponding sides.
It is given that XZ VZ and that YZ WZ. By the Vertical s Theorem. XZY VZW. Therefore ∆XYZ ∆VWZ by SAS. Example: Engineering Application The diagram shows part of the support structure for a tower. Use SAS to explain why ∆XYZ ∆VWZ.
It is given that BA BD and ABC DBC. By the Reflexive Property of , BC BC. So ∆ABC ∆DBC by SAS. Example Use SAS to explain why ∆ABC ∆DBC.

Triangle Congruence: ASA, AAS, and HL Holt Geometry Lesson Presentation Holt McDougal Geometry
An included side is the common side of two consecutive angles in a polygon. The following postulate uses the idea of an included side.
Example: Applying ASA Congruence Determine if you can use ASA to prove the triangles congruent. Explain. Two congruent angle pairs are give, but the included sides are not given as congruent. Therefore ASA cannot be used to prove the triangles congruent.
By the Alternate Interior Angles Theorem. KLN MNL. NL LN by the Reflexive Property. No other congruence relationships can be determined, so ASA cannot be applied. Example Determine if you can use ASA to prove NKL LMN. Explain.
You can use the Third Angles Theorem to prove another congruence relationship based on ASA. This theorem is Angle-Angle-Side (AAS).
Example: Using AAS to Prove Triangles Congruent Use AAS to prove the triangles congruent. Given:X V, YZW YWZ, XY VY Prove: XYZ VYW
Example Use AAS to prove the triangles congruent. Given:JL bisects KLM, K M Prove:JKL JML
Example: Applying HL Congruence Determine if you can use the HL Congruence Theorem to prove the triangles congruent. If not, tell what else you need to know. According to the diagram, the triangles are right triangles that share one leg. It is given that the hypotenuses are congruent, therefore the triangles are congruent by HL.
Example: Applying HL Congruence This conclusion cannot be proved by HL. According to the diagram, the triangles are right triangles and one pair of legs is congruent. You do not know that one hypotenuse is congruent to the other.
