Chapter 4 Congruent Triangles • Identify the corresponding parts of congruent figures • Prove two triangles are congruent • Apply the theorems and corollaries about isosceles triangles 4.1 Congruent Figures Objectives • Identify the corresponding parts of congruent figures What we already know… • Congruent Segments – Same length – AB ≅ CD – AB = 4 , CD = 4 • Congruent Angles – Same degree measure – ∠ABC ≅ ∠ EFG – m∠ABC = 48 ◦ , m∠ EFG = 48◦ Congruent Figures Exactly the same size and shape. Don’t ASSume ! C B A F D E Definition of Congruency Two polygons are congruent if corresponding vertices can be matched up so that: 1. All corresponding sides are congruent 2. All corresponding angles are congruent. What does corresponding mean again? • Matching • In the same position Definition of Congruent Triangles ∆ABC ≅ ∆DEF You can slide and rotate the triangles around so that they MATCH up perfectly. A E C B F The order in which you name the triangles matters ! D Based on the definition of congruency…. • Three pairs of corresponding angles • Three pairs of corresponding sides 1. ∠ A ≅ ∠ D 1. AB ≅ DE 2. ∠ B ≅ ∠ E 2. BC ≅ EF 3. ∠ C ≅ ∠ F 3. CA ≅ FD There are 6 pieces of information that we need to have in order to prove that two triangles are congruent!! ∆ ABC ≅ ∆ XYZ • Based off this information with or without a diagram, we can conclude… • Letters X and A, appear first, naming corresponding vertices, which means… – ∠ X ≅ ∠ A. • The letters Y and B come next, so – ∠ Y ≅ ∠ B and –XY ≅ AB HINT: If there’s no drawing, create your own!!! CAUTION !! • If the diagram doesn’t show the markings A D C B F F • Use the information given to you… – Shared sides, shared angles, vertical angles, parallel lines White Boards • Suppose ∆ TIM ≅ ∆ BER IM ≅ ___ White Boards • Suppose ∆ TIM ≅ ∆ BER IM ≅ ER , Why ?

SAS Postulate • Two sides match up congruent and… • The angles between the 2 sides are congruent. E B A C F D ASA Postulate • Two angles match up congruent and… • The side in between those angles E B A C F D The order of the letters MEAN something • Is SAS the same as SSA or A$$ ? NO!!!! • SAS – TWO SIDES WITH THE ANGLE THAT IS IN BETWEEN (INCLUDED ∠ ) • ASA – TWO ANGLES WITH THE SIDE THAT IS BETWEEN THEM CAUTION !! • If the diagram doesn’t show the markings or • You don’t have a reason – Shared sides, shared angles, vertical angles, parallel lines A.

If so, write the congruence (∆ ABC ≅ ∆_ _ _ ). If not write not congruent. ∆ ABC ≅ ∆ EDC SAS D A C B E ∆ CDA ≅ ∆ ABC ASA A B C D 4.3 Using Congruent Triangles Objectives • Use congruent triangles to prove other things Pg. 124 • Copy down problem #10 • Talk through with your partner how you would prove the triangles are congruent • REMEMEBER… TO SAY THE TRIANGLES ARE CONGRUENT MEANS YOU HAVE THE EVIDENCE FOR 1 OF OUR SHORTCUTS (SSS, ASA, SAS) • Write an explanation in paragraph form Pg. 125 • Copy down problem # 16 in your notes – Copy down everything! – Including the diagram – Complete the proof in your group Once the triangles are congruent…. • If we can show two triangle are congruent, using the SSS, SAS, ASA postulates then.. – We can use the definition of Congruent Triangles to say other parts of the triangles are congruent. • Corresponding Parts of Congruent Triangles are Congruent. (CPCTC) This is an abbreviated way to refer to the definition of congruency with respect to triangles. C orresponding P arts of C ongruent T riangles are C ongruent Used as a reason in a proof to say that the rest of the pieces of the triangles not mentioned are congruent too. (GETTING A CONVICTION) CPCTC cannot be used in a proof until after the triangle is proven congruent. STEPS TO FOLLOW… 1. Identify two triangles in which the two segments or angles are corresponding parts. (criminals) 2. Prove that those two triangles are congruent (evidence) 3. State that the two parts are congruent using the reason CPCTC. ( You convict the other corresponding pieces as being congruent) Given: m ∠ 1 = m ∠ 2 m∠3=m∠4 Prove: JM = MK J L 34 1 2 M • Mark the diagram with the given info • Check for free visual evidence.. • Remember that you must prove the triangles congruent first, before using CPCTC. • TALK IT OUT IN YOUR GROUPS WRITE AN EXPLANATION K Given: m ∠ 1 = m ∠ 2 m∠3=m∠4 Prove: JM = MK J L 34 1 2 M K Chapter 4 Quiz • Drawing two congruent triangles – What can you conclude? – Name the corresponding sides and angles • Given a diagram… – Are the two triangles congruent? – Name the two congruent triangles and the postulate that proves it (ORDER MATTERS) • Complete a proof – Using SSS, SAS, or ASA – Using CPCTC 4.4 The Isosceles Triangle Theorem Objectives • Apply the theorems and corollaries about isosceles triangles Isosceles Triangle By definition, it is a triangle with two congruent sides called legs.

Definition: Median of a Triangle A segment connecting a vertex to the midpoint of the opposite side. midpoint Determine the definition by looking at the diagram vertex What indicates that the segment is intersecting the side at it’s midpoint? Median of a Triangle Each triangle has three Medians vertex midpoint Altitude of a Triangle A segment drawn from a vertex perpendicular to the opposite side. vertex Determine the definition by looking at the diagram perpendicular Does the segment intersect at the midpoint? Altitude of a Triangle Each triangle has three altitudes perpendicular vertex Special Cases - Altitudes Obtuse Triangles: Two of the altitudes are drawn outside the triangle. Extend the sides of the triangle Special Cases - Altitudes Right Triangles: Two of the altitudes are already drawn for you. **YOU WILL SEE THIS ON THE TEST!! Altitudes • Acute – all 3 are inside the triangle • Obtuse – 1 inside – 2 outside • Right – 1 inside – other 2 are the legs of the triangle Perpendicular Bisector • A segment (line or ray) that is… – perpendicular to a segment and.. – passes through the midpoint of segment.
