  1. 4-2 Angles in a Triangle Mr. Dorn Chapter 4

  2. 4-2 Angles in a Triangle Angle Sum Theorem: The sum of the angles in a triangle is 180. x + y + z = 180 y x z

  3. 4-2 Angles in a Triangle Third Angle Theorem: If two angles of a triangle are congruent to two angles of another triangle, then the third angles are congruent. A Y Given: C B Conclusion: Z X

  4. 4-2 Angles in a Triangle Exterior Angle Theorem: The measure of an exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the measures of the two remote interior angles. m = x + y y x z m

  5. 4-3 Congruent Triangles

  6. 4-3 Congruent Triangles CPCTC: Corresponding Parts of Congruent Triangles are Congruent. A X Z B C Y

  7. Example 1 Complete the sentence. Q P N L M R

  8. Example 2 Given: CA = 14, AT = 18, TC = 21, and DG = 2x + 7 Find x. 21 = 2x + 7 A O 14 = 2x 7 = x 14 18 G C T D 21 2x + 7

  9. Example 3 Given: AC = 7, BC = 10, DF = 2x + 4, and DE = 4x. Find x and AB. AB = 4x 7 = 2x + 4 AB = 4(1.5) 3 = 2x AB = 6 B 1.5 = x E 10 4x F A C D 7 2x + 4

  10. 4-4 Proving Triangles Congruent

  11. 4-4 Proving Congruent Triangles N L SSS Postulate: (Side-Side-Side) If the sides of one triangle are congruent to the sides of a second triangle, then the triangles are congruent. Q M P R

  12. 4-4 Proving Congruent Triangles A SAS Postulate: (Side-Angle-Side) If two sides of one triangle and the included angle are congruent to two sides and the included angle of a second triangle, then the triangles are congruent. B C X Z Y

  13. 4-4 Proving Congruent Triangles A ASA Postulate: (Angle-Side-Angle) If two angles and the included side of one triangle are congruent to two angles and the included side of a second triangle, then the triangles are congruent. B C X Z Y

  14. 4-4 Proving Congruent Triangles A AAS Postulate: (Angle-Angle-Side) If two angles and a nonincluded side of one triangle are congruent to two angles and a nonincluded side of a second triangle, then the triangles are congruent. B C X Z Y

  15. 4-4 Proving Congruent Triangles Four Postulates that will work for any type of triangle: SSS, SAS, ASA, AAS *Just remember: Any Combination works as longs as it does not spell a bad word forward or back.

  16. Example 1 Find x. Use the Angle Sum Theorem! 3x 3x + x +2x = 180 2x 6x = 180 x x = 30

  17. Example 2 Find x. Use the Exterior Angle Theorem! (103 – x) +2x = 6x - 7 (103-x) 2x 103 + x = 6x - 7 103 = 5x - 7 110 = 5x (6x-7) x = 22

  18. Example 3 Find x. Use the Angle Sum Theorem! y + 53 + 80 = 180 x = 65 y + 133 = 180 y = 47 50 n + 50 + 62 = 180 53 n + 112 = 180 x n = 68 Vertical angles are congruent, so… 62 47 y n 80 68 x+ 47 +68 = 180 x+115 = 180

  19. Example 4 Are the two triangles congruent? If so, what postulate identifies the two triangles as congruent? Yes, SAS

  20. Example 5 Are the two triangles congruent? If so, what Postulate identifies the two triangles as congruent? Not Congruent!
