  1. Proving Triangles Congruent

  2. SSS If we can show all 3 pairs of corr. sides are congruent, the triangles have to be congruent.

  3. SAS Non-included angles Included angle Show 2 pairs of sides and the included angles are congruent and the triangles have to be congruent.

  4. This is called a common side. It is a side for both triangles. We’ll use the reflexive property.

  5. Common side SSS Vertical angles SAS Parallel lines alt int angles Common side SAS

  6. ASA, AAS and HL A ASA – 2 angles and the included side S A AAS – 2 angles and The non-included side A A S

  7. HL ( hypotenuse leg ) is used only with right triangles, BUT, not all right triangles. ASA HL

  8. SOME REASONS WE’LL BE USING • DEF OF MIDPOINT • DEF OF A BISECTOR • VERT ANGLES ARE CONGRUENT • DEF OF PERPENDICULAR BISECTOR • REFLEXIVE PROPERTY (COMMON SIDE) • PARALLEL LINES ….. ALT INT ANGLES
