Chapter 4 Congruent Triangles Chapter Objectives • • • • • • • Classification of Triangles by Sides Classification of Triangles by Angles Exterior Angle Theorem Triangle Sum Theorem Adjacent Sides and Angles Parts of Specific Triangles 5 Congruence Theorems for Triangles Lesson 4.1 Triangles and Angles Lesson 4.1 Objectives • • • • Identify the parts of a triangle Classify triangles according to their sides Classify triangles according to their angles Calculate angle measures in triangles Classification of Triangles by Sides Name Equilateral Isosceles Scalene 3 congruent sides At least 2 congruent sides No Congruent Sides Looks Like Characteristics Classification of Triangles by Angles Name Acute Equiangular Right Obtuse 3 acute angles 3 congruent angles 1 right angles 1 obtuse angle Looks Like Characteristics Example 1 • You must classify the triangle as specific as you possibly can. • That means you must name – Classification according to angles – Classification according to sides • In that order! • Example Obtuse isosceles Vertex • The vertex of a triangle is any point at which two sides are joined. – It is a corner of a triangle. – There are 3 in every triangle Adjacent Sides and Adjacent Angles • Adjacent sides are those sides that intersect at a common vertex of a polygon. – These are said to be adjacent to an angle. • Adjacent angles are those angles that are right next to each other as you move inside a polygon. – These are said to be adjacent to a specific side. Special Parts in a Right Triangle • Right triangles have special names that go with it parts. • For instance: – The two sides that form the right angle are called the legs of the right triangle. – The side opposite the right angle is called the hypotenuse. • The hypotenuse is always the longest side of a right triangle. hypotenuse legs Special Parts of an Isosceles Triangle • An isosceles triangle has only two congruent sides – Those two congruent sides are called legs. – The third side is called the base. legs base More Parts of Triangles • If you were to extend the sides you will see that more angles would be formed. • So we need to keep them separate – The three original angles are called interior angles because they are inside the triangle. – The three new angles are called exterior angles because they lie outside the triangle. Example 2 Classify the following triangles by their sides and their angles. Scalene Obtuse Scalene Right Isosceles Acute Theorem 4.1: Triangle Sum Theorem • The sum of the measures of the interior angles of a triangle is 180o. B mA + mB + mC = 180o C A Example 3 Solve for x and then classify the triangle based on its angles. 75 Acute 50 3x + 2x + 55 = 180 Triangle Sum Theorem 5x + 55 = 180 Simplify 5x = 125 SPOE x = 25 DPOE Theorem 4.2: Exterior Angle Theorem • The measure of an exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the measures of the two nonadjacent interior angles. B A C m A +m B = m C Example 4 Solve for x x = 50 + 70 Exterior Angle Theorem x = 120 Simplify Corollary to the Triangle Sum Theorem • A corollary to a theorem is a statement that can be proved easily using the original theorem itself. – This is treated just like a theorem or a postulate in proofs. • The acute angles in a right triangle are complementary. A mA + mB = 90o B C Homework 4.1 • In Class – 1-9 • p199-201 • In HW – 10-26, 31-39, 41-47, 49, 50, 52-68 • Due Tomorrow Lesson 4.2 Congruence and Triangles Lesson 4.2 Objectives • Identify congruent figures and their corresponding parts. • Prove two triangles are congruent. • Apply the properties of congruence to triangles. Congruent Triangles • When two triangles are congruent, then – Corresponding angles are congruent. – Corresponding sides are congruent. • Corresponding, remember, means that objects are in the same location. – So you must verify that when the triangles are drawn in the same way, what pieces match up? Naming Congruent Parts • Be sure to pay attention to the proper notation when naming parts. – ABC DEF • This is called a congruence statement. B D F AD BE C F and A C E AB DE BC EF AC DF Theorem 4.3: Third Angles Theorem • If two angles of one triangle are congruent to two angles of another triangle, then the third angles are congruent. Prove Triangles are Congruent • In order to prove that two triangles are congruent, we must – Show that ALL corresponding angles are congruent, and – Show that ALL corresponding sides are congruent. • We must show all 6 are congruent! Example 5 Complete the following statements. a) Segment EF ___________ a) segment OP P ________ b) b) F G ________ c) c) d) Q mO = ________ d) e) 110o QO = ________ e) 7 km GFE __________ f) f) QPO • Yes, the order is important! Theorem 4.4: Properties of Congruent Triangles • Reflexive Property of Congruent Triangles – ABC ABC • Reflexive Property of • Symmetric Property of Congruent Triangles – If ABC DEF, then DEF ABC. • Symmetric Property of • Transitive Property of Congruent Triangles – If ABC DEF and DEF JKL, then ABC JKL. • Transitive Property of Homework 4.2 • None Lesson 4.3 Proving Triangles are Congruent: SSS & SAS Lesson 4.3 Objectives • Prove triangles are congruent using the SSS Congruence Postulate • Prove triangles are congruent using the SAS Congruence Postulate Postulate 19: Side-Side-Side Congruence Postulate • If three sides of one triangle are congruent to three sides of a second triangle, then the two triangles are congruent. Postulate 20: Side-Angle-Side Congruence Postulate • If two sides and the included angle of one triangle are congruent to two sides and the included angle of a second triangle, then the two triangles are congruent. Which One Do I Use? • Remember there are 6 parts to every triangle. – Identify which parts of the triangle do you know (100% sure) are congruent. – Rotate around the triangle keeping one thing in mind. • Cannot rotate so that 2 parts in a row are missed! • That means as you rotate by counting angle, then side, then angle, then side, then angle, and then side you cannot miss two pieces in a row! – You can skip 1, but not 2!! – Be sure the pattern that you find fits the same pattern in the same way from the other triangle. • If it fits, they are congruent. Example 6 Decide whether or not the congruence statement is true. Explain your reasoning. Reflexive Property of Congruence Because the segment is shared between two triangles, and yet it is the same segment The statement is true because of SSS Congruence Reflexive Property of Congruence The statement is not true because the vertices are out of order. The statement is not true because the vertices are out of order. Example 7 Decide whether or not there is enough information to conclude SAS Congruence. Yes! Reflexive Property of Congruence Yes!
