4.3 Proving Δs are : SSS and SAS Geometry Fall 2005 Mrs. Spitz
Standards/Benchmarks Standard 2: Students will learn and apply geometric concepts Objectives: • Prove that triangles are congruent using the SSS and SAS Congruence Postulates. • Use congruence postulates in real life problems such as bracing a structure.
Assignment • Worksheet 4.2 A back to back with 4.3 A • Reminder there is a quiz after section 4.4 • There are 7 sections in this chapter. • 4.4 and 4.5 are one section • 4.6 and 4.7 are another section • This makes your test likely to be next Monday. • Deficiencies go out the end of this week.
Remember? • As of yesterday, Δs could only be if ALL sides AND angles were • NOT ANY MORE!!!! • There are two short cuts to add.
Post. 19Side-Side-Side (SSS) post • If 3 sides of one Δ are to 3 sides of another Δ, then the Δs are .
