Before our long weekend, we spent some time investigating relationships that exist within triangles. We talked about the properties of isosceles triangles, midsegments of triangles, the relationship between a triangle's angles and sides, and the triangle inequality theorem.
During this week, we will build on this knowledge in order to prove that two triangles are congruent. This week, we will discover five triangle congruence shortcuts that we can use in order to prove that two triangles are the exact same size and shape. - SSS Congruence
- SAS Congruence
- ASA Congruence
- SAA/AAS Congruence
- HL Congruence
Students will be able to formalize this argument in a two-column proof. Students should expect to see one or two formative assessment check-ins this week in order to check our current level of understanding.
