Unit 5 Proving Triangles Congruent
Midterm Reflection • What was your goal? • What was your actual grade? • Why did you meet/not meet your goal? • What were your strengths? • What areas do you need to work on? • What are you going to do to succeed on the next test?
Section 1 Angles of a Triangle
Warm-Up • Write down everything you remember about triangles!
Types of Triangles • By Side: • Equilateral—all sides congruent • Isosceles—two sides congruent • Scalene—no sides congruent • By Angle: • Obtuse—one angle greater than 90° • Right—one angle equal to 90° • Acute—all angles less than 90°
Angles of a Triangle • Interior Angles add up to 180° • Exterior Angles add up to 360° • Examples: • In triangle DEF; ∠D = 45°, ∠E = 30°. Find ∠F. • In triangle ABC; ∠C = 3x – 5, ∠B = x + 40 and ∠A = 2x + 25. Find the measures of all three angles. 2x + 5 x + 40 3x – 5
Section 1 CPCTC and SSS
Mad Minute: Marking Congruent and Parallel Parts • Congruent line segments are marked with a small dash • Congruent angles are marked with an arc • Parallel lines are marked with arrows • To separate different pairs of congruent line segments or angles, we use different numbers of dashes or arcs
CPCTC: Corresponding Parts of Congruent Triangles are Congruent • Corresponding = matching • Order of the letters matters! • Example: ΔABC = ΔDEF. Which angles are congruent? Which sides are congruent?
Side-Side-Side (SSS) • SSS Postulate: If all three corresponding sides of two triangles are congruent, then the triangles are congruent • Example: ΔFEG = ΔKJL because of SSS.
Section 2 SAS, ASA, AAS, HL
Mad Minute • Name all the corresponding angles if ΔIJH ≅ ΔKJL.
Yesterday’s Exit Slip • ∠SRU ≅ ∠STU • ∠RSU ≅ ∠TSU • ∠RUS ≅ ∠TUS • Yes, can be proven through SSS • ∠BRD ≅ ∠DYB • ∠RBD ≅ ∠YDB • ∠RDB ≅ ∠YBD • BR ≅ DY • BY ≅ DR • BD ≅ BD
Triangle Congruence Postulates • Side-Side-Side (SSS) • Side-Angle-Side (SAS) • Sandwich! • Angle-Side-Angle (ASA) • Sandwich! • Angle-Angle-Side (AAS) • No sandwich! • Hypotenuse-Leg (HL) • Right triangles only! THERE IS NO ASS (OR SSA) IN THIS CLASS!
Which postulate proves each pair of triangles congruent? WHY?
Section 3 Identity Properties in Triangle Proofs
Identity Properties • Reflexive Property: AB ≅ AB (congruent to itself) • Transitive Property: AB ≅ BC, BC ≅ CD, so AB ≅ CD • Additive Property: Adding the same amount to two congruent parts results in two equal sums • Multiplicative Property: Multiplying two congruent parts by the same number results in two equal products
How to Complete a Formal Proof • Mark diagram with “Given” and write as Step 1. • Figure out how many parts of the triangles you know are congruent, and how many you need to prove congruent. • Mark missing congruent parts on diagram, using info from theorems you know (vertical angles, etc.). Write these down in the two columns. • Prove triangles congruent using: SSS, SAS, ASA, AAS, or HL. • Check: Make sure you used all info in the “Given.” Make sure your last step matches the “Prove”.
Example Check: Did we use all info in the Given? Does our last step match the Prove? • Given: GJ ≅ JI HJ ┴ GI • Prove: ΔGJH ≅ ΔIJH side 2. ┴ lines form right angles, all right angles are ≅ angle 2. ∠GJH ≅ ∠IJH side 3. HJ ≅ HJ 3. Reflexive property 4. ΔGJH ≅ ΔIJH 4. SAS
Section 4 Line/Angle Theorems in Triangle Proofs
Lines & Points • Midpoint • Halfway point on a line segment • Bisect • Split a line segment or angle into two equal parts V is the midpoint of TW HJ bisects GI
Angles • Vertical Angles • ALWAYS congruent; (“X”) • Alternate Interior Angles • ONLY congruent when we know lines are parallel (“Z”) • ABCD is a parallelogram

Section 5 Using Quadrilateral Theorems in Triangle Proofs
Quadrilateral Review • Parallelogram • Rhombus • Rectangle • Square • ALSO WATCH OUT FOR: • Alternate Interior Angles • Vertical Angles
Properties of a Parallelogram • Opposite sides are parallel and congruent • Opposite angles are congruent • Diagonals bisect each other • Bisect = to split in half
Rhombus • Has all the properties of a parallelogram, plus: • FOUR congruent sides • Diagonals are perpendicular and bisect
Rectangle • Has all properties of a parallelogram, plus: • Four right angles • Congruent diagonals that bisect
SQUARE • Four congruent sides and four right angles • Diagonals are congruent and perpendicular; also bisect
