Other Possibilities? SSA Will this ever Work? 30°
Special Case of SSA • Given a right angle, one leg, & the hypotenuse - Does this prove the triangles congruent? S A S
Yes – Remember Pythagorean Theorem • a2 + b2 = c2 c c’ a a’ b b’
a2 + b2 = c2 • Because of Pythagorean thm. a must = a’ • This gives SSS @ 5 5 a a’ 3 3
HL @ Theorem • If the hyp & leg of one right /\ are @ to the hyp & leg of another right /\ then the /\ are @.
