4.2 Properties of Special Triangles Year 2 Geometry
Investigation #1(optional) • Draw an angle on patty paper. Label the angle C. • Put point A on one ray. • Fold the patty paper so both rays match. • Copy point A on the other ray and label it B. • Construct line segment AB.
Investigation #1 continued • What type of triangle is this? • How can you tell? • Name the vertex angle. • Name the base. • Name the base angles (2). ISOSCELES! TWO SIDES ARE CONGRUENT!
Base angles Isosceles Triangle Conjecture • If a triangle is isosceles, then its base angles are ______________? CONGRUENT
