  1. Chapter 4: Congruent Triangles Lesson 1: Classifying Triangles

  2. Classifying Triangle by Angles • Acute Triangle: all of the angles are acute • Obtuse Triangle: one angle is obtuse, the other two are acute • Right Triangle: one angle is right, the other two are acute • Equiangular Triangle: all the angles are 60 degrees

  3. Classifying Triangles by Sides • Scalene Triangle: all sides are different measures • Isosceles Triangle: at least two sides have the same measure • Equilateral Triangle: all sides have the same measure 7 3 5 * vertex angle= formed by the two congruent sides of an isosceles triangle * base= the side of an isosceles triangle not congruent to the others

  4. If point Y is the midpoint of VX, and WY = 3.0 units, classify ΔVWY as equilateral, isosceles, or scalene. Explain your reasoning.

  5. ALGEBRA Find the measure of the sides of isosceles triangle KLM with base KL. __

  6. ALGEBRAFind x and the measure of each side of equilateral triangle ABC if AB = 6x – 8, BC = 7 + x, and AC = 13 – x.

  7. Find the measure of each side of Triangle JKL and classify the triangle based on its sides. • J(-3, 2) K(2, 1) L(-2, -3)

  8. Find y ___ ___

  9. Chapter 4: Congruent Triangles Lesson 2: Angles of Triangles

  10. The sum of the measures of the angles of a triangle is always 180 degrees. The acute angles of a right triangle are complementary There can be at most one right or one obtuse angle in a triangle Third Angle Theorem If two angles of one triangle are congruent to two angles of another triangle, then the third angles of the triangles are also congruent. X A Y B Z C If A X, and B Y, then C Z.

  11. Interior and Exterior Angles of Triangles • Exterior angle: formed by one side of a triangle and the extension of another side • The interior angles farthest from the exterior angle are its remote interior angles.(remote interior angles are not adjacent to the exterior angle) Remote interior angles Exterior angle An exterior angle is equal to the sum of its remote interior angles. ex: 1 + 2 = 4 2 1 3 4

  12. Anticipation Guide: read each statement. State whether the sentence is true or false. If the statement is false- rewrite it with the correct term in place of the underlined word • The acute angles of a right triangle are supplementary • The sum of the measures of the angles of any triangle is 100 • A triangle can have at most one right angle or acute angle • If two angles of one triangle are congruent to two angles of another triangle, then the third angle of the triangles are congruent • The measure of an exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the difference of the measures of the two remote interior angles • If the measures of two angles of a triangle are 62 and 93, then the measure of the third angle is 35 • An exterior angle of a triangle forms a linear pair with an interior angle of the triangle

  24. Chapter 4: Congruent Triangles Lesson 3: Congruent Triangles

  25. Definition of Congruent Triangles • Congruent triangles are triangles with exactly the same size and shape • CPCTC: Corresponding Parts of Congruent Triangles are Congruent • Two triangles are congruent if and only if their corresponding parts are congruent

  26. Corresponding Parts A • Corresponding parts have the same congruence markings • AB HI • AC HJ • BC IJ • A H • B I • C J B C H I J

  27. Congruence Transformations • Slide or Translation: the triangle is in the same position farther down, up, or across the page • Turn or Rotation: the triangle is spun around a point (usually one of the angles) • Flip or reflection: the triangle is shown in a mirror image across a line of symmetry

  28. Write a congruence statement for the triangles.

  29. Name the corresponding congruent angles for the congruent triangles.
