Congruence Theorems

Objective:

1. Each triangle congruence theorem uses sides and angles to prove congruence. Do the following
activity, constructing different triangles. Try different variations of sides and angles in order to
see the differences in the triangles. Remember the different types of triangles you have
already learned.

(10) Two-dimensional shapes. The student applies mathematical process standards to develop
transformational geometry concepts. The student is expected to:

(A) generalize the properties of orientation and congruence of rotations, reflections, translations,
and dilations of two-dimensional shapes on a coordinate plane;
