9. How do we know if two triangles are congruent? Concept Check!

10. Objective: To prove two triangles are congruent using SSS and SAS Postulates

11. Key Concepts SSS – Side-side-side corresponding congruence. SSS If three sides of one triangle are congruent to three sides of another triangle, then the two triangles are congruent (all corresponding sides are equal)

12. Example 1: State if the two triangles are congruent. If they are, write a congruence statement and state how you know they are congruent. Student Slide #1

13. Example 2: State if the two triangles are congruent. If they are, write a congruence statement and state how you know they are congruent. Student Slide #2

14. Key Concepts SAS – Side-Angle-Side corresponding Congruence. SAS ANGLE MUST BE IN BETWEEN THE TWO SIDES (INCLUDED ANGLE) If two sides and the included angle of one triangle are congruent to two sides and the included angle of another triangle, then the two triangles are congruent

15. Example 1: State if the two triangles are congruent. If they are, write a congruence statement and state how you know they are congruent. Student Slide #3

22. Objective: To prove two triangles are congruent using ASA, AAS, and HL Postulates

23. Key Concepts ASA – Two angles and an included side. ASA SIDE IS IN BETWEEN THE ANGLES If two angles and the included side of one triangle are congruent to two angles and the included side of another triangle, then the two triangles are congruent.

24. AAS – Two angles and a non-included side. AAS Key Concepts If two angles and the non-included side of a triangle are congruent to two angles and the non- included side of another triangle, then the two triangles are congruent.

25. Determine if you can use ASA or AAS to prove two triangles are congruent. Write the congruence statement.

26. Determine if you can use ASA or AAS to prove two triangles are congruent and explain your reasoning. Then write the congruence statement. Explain:

CPCTC Song (sung to the tune of “YMCA” by the Village People) Author of lyrics: Eagler Young man, there's no need to feel down I said, young man, pick yourself off the ground I said, young man, 'cause there's a new thing I've found There's no need to be unhappy Young man, there's this thing you can do I said, young man, it's so easy to prove You can use it, and I'm sure you will see Many ways to show congruency It's fun to solve it with C-P-C-T-C It's fun to solve it with C-P-C-T-C Barely takes any time, uses only one line It's the easiest thing you'll find It's fun to solve it with C-P-C-T-C It's fun to solve it with C-P-C-T-C If you don't have a clue, it's so simple to do Write five letters and you'll be through

36. Mini Lab

37. Similar Polygons: Two polygons are similar if: 1)Corresponding angles are congruent 2)Corresponding sides are proportional

38. Determine whether rectangle HJKL is similar to rectangle MNPQ.

39. Transformations

40. Reflection over the x-axis Preserves congruence

41. Rotation 90 ô about the origin Preserves congruence 90 ô (x,y)  (-y,x) Ex: D(6,3)  D’(-3,6) 180 ô (x,y)  (-x,-y)

42. Translation Preserves congruence 3 units right, 4 units down

43. Dilation Does not preserve congruence Scale factor (length of image/length of original) :2/1 BUT, are they similar?
