  1. Sections 4.3 - 4.5 Triangle Congruence

  2. Similar Triangles We know from previous sections, that two triangles are similar if: • AA (2 sets of corresponding angles are congruent) • SAS (2 corresponding sides have the same scale factor and one set of angles between the 2 sides are congruent) • SSS (3 sets of corresponding sides are proportional)

  3. If 3 sides of one triangle are congruent to 3 sides of another, then the 2 triangles are congruent.

  4. SSS If the corresponding sides of two triangles are proportional (all have the same scale factor), then the triangles are ___________. If the corresponding sides of two triangles are congruent (S.F. = 1), then the triangles are ___________.

  5. SSS: Decide whether or not the congruent statement is true by SSS. Explain your reasoning. a. b. 6

  6. If 2 sides and the included angle of a triangle are congruent to the corresponding parts of another, then the triangles are congruent.

  7. SAS If 2 sets ofcorresponding sides proportional (all have the same scale factor) and 1 set of corresponding angles are congruent, then the triangles are ___________. If the corresponding sides of two triangles are congruent (S.F. = 1), then the triangles are ___________.

  8. SAS: Decide whether or not the congruent statement is true by SAS. Explain your reasoning. c. d. Yes No

  9. If 2 angles and the included side of a triangle are congruent to the corresponding parts of another, then the triangles are congruent.

  10. A B E C D ASA: Decide whether or not the congruent statement is true by ASA. Explain your reasoning. c. d.

  11. If 2 angles and the non- included side of a triangle are congruent to the corresponding parts of another, then the triangles are congruent.

  12. AAS: Decide whether or not the congruent statement is true by AAS. Explain your reasoning. c. d. Yes ASA NO

  13. Leg: • Hypotenuse: 2 shorter sides of a right triangle Longest side of a right triangle and opposite the right angle If the hypotenuse and a leg of a right triangle are congruent to the corresponding parts of another, then the triangles are congruent.

  14. HL: Decide whether there is enough information to prove that the two triangles are congruent by using HL theorem. B)B and  D are both right angles. C is the midpoint of . A)

  15. SSA / ASS

  16. On Your Own 5: Can the triangles be proven congruent with the information given in the diagram? If so, state the postulate or theorem you would use. 1. is TSW WVT? 2. 3.
