Lesson 4.1 Objectives The student will be able to… • Identify and classify triangles by angles and sides • Apply the Triangle Sum Theorem. • Apply the Exterior Angle Theorem. • Name and Use CPCTC. • Prove triangles congruent by definition.
Virginia SOL Standard G.6 • The student, given information in the form of a figure or statement, will prove two triangles are congruent, using algebraic and coordinate methods as well as deductive proofs.
New Definitions • Acute Triangle • Obtuse Triangle • Right Triangle • Equilateral Triangle • Isosceles Triangle • Scalene Triangle • Auxiliary Line • Corollary • Exterior Angle • Remote Interior Angle • Congruent • Corresponding Parts
New Postulates • Reflexive Property of Triangle Congruence - ∆ABC ≅ ∆ABC • Symmetric Property of Triangle Congruence - If ∆ABC ≅ ∆EFG, then ∆EFG ≅ ∆ABC. • Transitive Property of Triangle Congruence - If ∆ABC ≅ ∆EFG and ∆EFG ≅ ∆JKL, then ∆ABC ≅ ∆JKL.
New Theorems • Triangle-Sum Theorem • Exterior Angle Theorem • Triangle Angle-Sum Corollaries • Third Angles Theorem
Classifying Triangles I • Acute Triangle: All three angles are acute. • Obtuse Triangle: One obtuse angle (other two acute) • Right Triangle: One right angle (other two acute)
Classifying Triangles II • Equilateral Triangle: All three sides are congruent. • Isosceles Triangle: Only two sides are congruent. • Scalene Triangle: No two sides are congruent.
Exterior Angle • Exterior Angle of a polygon can be drawn using an auxiliary line.
Triangle-Sum Theorem • The sum of the measures of the angles of a triangle is 180.
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.
Triangle Angle-Sum Corollaries • 1. The acute angles of a right triangle are complementary. • 2. There can be at most one right or obtuse angle in a triangle.
Third Angles Theorem • If two angles of one triangle are congruent to two angles of a second triangle, then the third angles of the triangles are congruent.

A triangle is equilateral if and only if it is equiangular. 2. Each angle of an equilateral triangle measure 60.
