DAY 1

A. Reviewing previous lesson or presenting the new lesson

Hello there! How are you?

33
In our last lesson, you’ve learned that two triangles are congruent if their corresponding sides
are equal in length and their corresponding interior angles are equal in measure.

We use the symbol ≅ to show congruence.

Corresponding sides and angles mean that the side on one triangle and the side on the other
triangle, in the same position match. You may have to rotate one triangle, to make a careful
comparison and find corresponding parts.

Marking

When two triangles are congruent we often mark corresponding sides and angles like this:

The sides marked with one line are equal in length. Similarly, for the sides marked with two
lines. Also for the sides marked with three lines.

The angles marked with one arc are equal in size. Similarly, for the angles marked with two
arcs. Also for the angles marked with three arcs.

Let us have Example :1. Use the following triangles to list the
corresponding parts.

You should have,

Corresponding Sides Corresponding Angles
DE ↔ GH ∠ D ↔∠G
DF ↔GI ∠ F ↔ ∠I
EF ↔ HI ∠ E ↔∠ H

Example 2: Name the congruent triangle and the congruent parts.

∆ FGH ≅ ∆¿
∠ EFI ≅ ∠¿ FG ≅¿
∠ G ≅ ∠¿ GH ≅¿
∠ H ≅ ∠¿ FH ≅¿

You should get,

∆ FGH ≅ ∆ FEI
∠ EFI ≅ ∠ GFH FG ≅ FE
∠G ≅∠ E GH ≅ EI
∠H ≅∠I FH ≅ FI
If your answer is correct, you may proceed to the next part of the discussion.
If not, I am sorry but you have to go back to Example 2 and try all over again.

You can now define what congruent triangles are.

If all six pairs of corresponding parts (sides and angles) are congruent, then the triangles are
congruent.

Do you need all six? NO!

34
Let us see how we can verify if two triangles are congruent using fewer pairs of congruent
corresponding parts. Before we study the postulates and theorem that give some ways to show
that the two triangles are congruent given less number of corresponding congruent parts, let us
first identify the parts of a triangle in terms of their relative positions.

Included angle is the angle between two sides of a triangle.

Included side is the side common to two angles of a triangle.

In ∆ SON ,
∠ S is anincluded angle between SN ∧SO
∠ Ois an included angle between OS∧ON
∠ N is anincluded angle between NS∧NO
SO is an included side between ∠ S∧∠O
ON is an included side between ∠ O∧∠ N
SN is an included side between ∠ S∧∠ N

Let’s have an example.

Given ∆ FOR, answer the following question.

1. What is the included angle between FO∧¿ ?
2. What is the included angle between FR∧FO ?
3. What is the included angle between FR∧RO ?
4. What is the included side between ∠ F∧∠ R
5. What is the included side between ∠O∧∠ R ?
6. What is the included side between ∠ F∧∠ O?

You should get:

1. ∠ FOR 2. ∠ OFR 3.∠ FRO
4. FR 5. ¿ 6. FO

If your answer is correct, you may proceed to the next part of the discussion.
If not, I am sorry but you have to go back to the example and try all over again.
Now it’s your turn!

Name the required side or angle.

1. the included side of ∠ M and ∠ MEP .
2. the included angle of ET and EN .

You should get:

1. ME 2. ∠ NET

B. Establishing a purpose for the lesson

Euclid wrote his mathematics book, called the Elements, in

Alexandria around 300 BC. It starts and finishes with geometry, but
along the way deals with such things as quadratic equations, ratio
and proportions, and prime numbers, all treated with a distinctly
geometric flavor. Euclid’s book also became the most famous
textbook in mathematics, and was still being used as the standard
text for school geometry well into the 20th century.

35
Congruence is an essential part of the early logical foundation of Euclid’s geometry, and
remains so in our present school courses. The concept of ‘moving one triangle to fit exactly on
top of the other’ is not regarded nowadays by mathematicians as a satisfactory starting point for
congruence, but it is perfectly satisfactory for school geometry. Euclid’s development of the
congruence tests uses this idea very cleverly, and his actual text could well be used as
extension in Years 9−10. It was, after all, the standard school geometry textbook not so long
ago.

Euclid’s work is interesting for second reason − it uses geometry as a means of dealing with
arithmetic and algebra. Geometry and arithmetic can both be used as bases for mathematics.

C. Presenting examples/instances of the new lesson

Now let us discover the Euclid in you!

We start by illustrating SAS Postulate.

SAS Postulate (SIDE-ANGLE-SIDE)

If two sides and the included angle of one triangle are congruent to the
corresponding two sides and the included angle of another triangle, then the
two triangles are congruent.

Note: Included angle is the angle formed by two given sides.

If AB ≅ DE , ∠B ≅ ∠E. and BC ≅ EF , then ∆ ABC ≅ ∆ DEF.

In the diagram, ∠B is the included angle of sides BA and BC .∠E is the included angle of sides
ED and EF . In order to use the side-angle-side postulate, we must be able to identity the
appropriate sides and angles.

Example 1
Determine if the SAS Postulate can be used to prove that the given triangles are congruent. If it
is not possible, explain why.

Solution:
a. From the diagrams, you
know that BD ≅ CD and AD ≅ AD . The angle included between BD and AD is ∠BDA. The
angle included between CD and AD is ∠CDA. Since any two right angles are congruent, so
∠BDA≅ ∠CDA. You can use the SAS Postulate to conclude that ∆ ABD ≅ ∆ ACD .

36
 b. You are given that EF ≅ HI and FG ≅ IJ . You know that ∠F ≅ ∠I and they are included
angles between the pairs of congruent sides. You can use the SAS Postulate to conclude
that ∆ EFG ≅ ∆ HIJ.

Example 2: Determine if the SAS Postulate can be used to prove that the triangles are
congruent.

In the figure,

EL ≅ ML

FL ≅ AL

∠ ELF ≅ ∠ MLA
We conclude that ∆ELF ≅ ∆MLA by the SAS
Postulate because the triangles' two
corresponding sides and included angles are
congruent.

Now, it’s your turn. Write your answers on your Math notebook.

I. Show that the two triangles are congruent by naming the congruent parts, then name the
triangles that are congruent by SAS Congruence Postulate.

II. In the

corresponding parts needed to allow us to apply SAS Congruence Postulate.

D. Discussing new concepts and practicing new skills #1

37
One way to think about triangle congruence is to imagine they are made of cardboard. They are
congruent if you can slide them around, rotate them, and flip them over in various ways so they
make a pile where they exactly fit over each other.

We've just studied the first postulate that will help us prove congruence between triangles. In
this section, we will get introduced to another postulate that involve the angles of triangles much
more than the SAS Postulate did. Understanding this postulate and being able to apply it in the
correct situations will help us tremendously as we continue our study of Geometry. Let's take a
look at our next postulate.

ASA Postulate (Angle-Side-Angle)

If two angles and the included side of one triangle are congruent to the
corresponding two angles and the included side of another triangle, then the two
triangles are congruent.

Note: Included side is the side of the triangle whose endpoints are the vertices of the
two
given angles.

In a sense, this is basically the opposite of the SAS Postulate. The SAS Postulate required

congruence of two sides and the included angle, whereas the ASA Postulate requires two
angles and the included side to be congruent. An illustration of this postulate is shown below.
Example 1: Using the marked figures, can the ASA Postulate be used to show that the triangles
are
Congruent? Explain.

In the figure,

∠B ≅ ∠E - ANGLE
BC ≅ EF – SIDE (included side)
∠C ≅ ∠F - ANGLE

We conclude that ∆ABC ≅ ∆DEF by the ASA

Postulate because the triangles' two corresponding
angles and included side are congruent.

Example 2: Determine if the ASA Postulate can be used to prove that the triangles are
congruent.

In the figure,
∠CAB ≅ ∠ZXY - ANGLE
AB ≅ XY – SIDE (included side)
∠ABC ≅ ∠XYZ - ANGLE

We conclude that ∆ABC ≅ ∆XYZ by the ASA

Postulate because the triangles' two
corresponding angles and included side are
congruent.

Example 3: Using the marked figures, can the ASA Postulate be used to show that the triangles
are congruent? Explain.

38
 In the figure,
∠D ≅ ∠X - ANGLE
DF ≅ XZ – SIDE
∠E ≅ ∠Y - ANGLE

Since DF ∧XZ are not the included sides between

the congruent angles, the ASA Postulate cannot be
used to show that the two triangles are congruent.

Now, it’s your turn. Write your answer on your Math notebook.

Example 4: Using the marked figures, determine if the ASA Postulate can be used to prove
that the
triangles are congruent.

You should get:

In the diagrams above,    

AB ≅ DE

(included side), ∠A ≅  ∠D (angle), ∠B ≅   ∠E (angle), therefore, triangle ABC is congruent

to triangle DEF.

Example 5: Use the given information to complete each statement. If the triangles cannot be
proven congruent from the given information, write “not congruent”.

SOLUTION:
∆GIT ≅ ∆AIN
In the figure,
∠G ≅ ∠A - ANGLE
GI ≅ AI – SIDE
∠GIT ≅ ∠AIN - ANGLE

Since, ∠GIT ≅ ∠AIN are congruent by Vertical

Angle Theorem, the ASA Postulate can be used to
show that the two triangles are congruent.

Example 6: In the following figures, corresponding congruent parts are marked. Indicate the
additional corresponding parts needed to allow us to apply ASA Congruence Postulate.

SOLUTION:
In the figure,
∠C ≅ ∠V - ANGLE
∠A ≅ ∠U - ANGLE

Therefore, the additional corresponding part needed is

corresponding congruent included side which is CA ≅ VU .
39
Now, it’s your turn. Write your answer on your Math notebook.

Example 7: Using the marked figures, Indicate

the additional corresponding parts
needed to allow us to apply ASA
Congruence Postulate.

You should get:

In the diagrams above, ∠C ≅  ∠R (angle),

CB  ≅   RQ (included side), therefore the

additional corresponding part needed to conclude that the triangles are congruent by
ASA Congruence Postulate is ∠B ≅  ∠Q (angle).

Now, it’s your turn. Write your answer on your Math notebook.

Activity 1: Answer each of the following completely.

1. Show that the two triangles are congruent by naming the congruent parts, then name the
triangles that are congruent by ASA Congruence Postulate.

2. In the following figures, corresponding congruent parts are marked. Indicate the
additional corresponding parts needed to allow us to apply ASA Congruence Postulate.

We've just studied the ASA Postulate that will help us prove congruence between triangles. In
this section, we will get introduced to a theorem that involves the angles of triangles and non-
included side. Let's take a look at the theorem.

40
 AAS or SAA Theorem (Angle-Angle-Side)
If two angles and a non-included side of one triangle are congruent to the
corresponding two angles and a non-included side another triangle, then the
triangles are congruent.

In order to use this postulate, it is essential that the congruent sides not be included between
the two pairs of congruent angles. If the side is included between the angles, we would actually
need to use the ASA Postulate. The correct use of the AAS Theorem is shown below.

Example 1: Using the marked figures, can the AAS Theorem be used to show that the
triangles are Congruent? Explain.

In the figure,
∠B ≅ ∠E - ANGLE
∠C ≅ ∠F - ANGLE
A B ≅ DE – SIDE (non-included side)
We conclude that ∆ABC ≅ ∆DEF by the AAS
Theorem because the triangles' two corresponding
angles and non-included side are congruent.

Example 2: Determine if the AAS Theorem can be used to prove that the triangles are
congruent.

In the figure,
∠REN ≅ ∠RVN - ANGLE
∠ERN ≅ ∠VRN - ANGLE
RN ≅ RN – SIDE (non-included side)
We conclude that ∆ERN ≅ ∆VRN by the AAS
Theorem because the triangles' two
corresponding angles and non-included side
are congruent.

Now, it’s your turn. Write your answer on your Math notebook.

Example 3: Using the marked figures,

determine if the AAS Theorem can be used to
prove that the triangles are congruent.
You should get:

In the diagrams, ∠C  ∠Z (angle), ∠A   ∠X

≅ ≅
(angle),and AB ≅   XY (non-included side),
therefore, triangle ABC is congruent
to triangle XYZ.

41
Example 4: In the following figures, corresponding congruent parts are marked. Indicate the
additional corresponding parts needed to allow us to apply AAS Theorem.

SOLUTION:

In the figure,
∠E ≅ ∠R - ANGLE
EF ≅ RQ – NON-INCLUDED SIDE
Therefore, the additional corresponding
part needed is ∠G ≅ ∠P - ANGLE

Now, it’s your turn. Write your answer on

your Math notebook.
Example 5: Using the marked figures, Indicate the additional corresponding parts needed to
allow us to apply AAS Theorem.

You should get:

In the diagrams above, ∠Q ≅  ∠S (angle)

and ∠T ≅  ∠R (angle), therefore the

additional corresponding part needed to
conclude that the triangles are
congruent by AAS Theorem isTR  ≅  TR
(non-included side),.

Activity 2: Answer each of the following completely.

1. Show that the two triangles are congruent by naming the congruent parts, then name the
triangles that are congruent by AAS Theorem.

DAY 3

E. Discussing new concepts and practicing new skills #2

Aside from SAS Postulate, ASA Postulate and AAS Theorem, we can also prove two triangles
are congruent using the three sides of a triangle.

SSS Postulate (Side-Side-Side)

If three sides of a triangle are congruent to the corresponding sides of

another triangle, then the two triangles are congruent.

To illustrate SSS Congruence postulate, consider the following figure:

Example 1:

If AB ≅ DE , AC ≅ DF and BC ≅ EF
∴ ∆ ABC ≅ ∆≝¿ by SSS Congruence Postulate

Example 2:
Use the diagram on the right to show that the triangles
are congruent. Does it give enough information? Explain.

Solution:
From the diagram, you know that ¿ ≅ LO andVE ≅ VO . By reflexive
property, you know that LV ≅ LV

Thus, enough information is given. Because corresponding sides are congruent, you can use
the SSS Postulate to conclude that
∆ LEV ≅ ∆ LOV .
Example 3:
Which triangles are congruent based on the markings in the given
figure?
Solution:
Applying the SSS Postulate, GR ≅ ER , ¿ ≅ EA and RT ≅ RA .
Thus, ∆ GRT ≅ ∆ ERA .

Now, your turn. Write your answers in your notebook.

G. Finding practical applications of concepts and skills in
daily living

Congruent triangles can be used for many different things. In architecture

congruent triangles are used to represent doors and how far they swing open. Also
when you use shadows that make triangles to find the height of an object. You can use that find
the height of actual objects and they can also be used to stabilize a bridge.
Congruent triangles can be used for many different things. It can be used to stabilize a bridge.
It is used in aerial photography to see the distance from the sky to the ground. It is used in
construction to measure out the room and scale size. It is used in light beams to see the
distance from light to the target.

Why do architects use triangles when building bridges, roofs on houses, and other structures?
Why not a quadrilateral, why not a pentagon?

If there is a single most important shape

in engineering, it is the triangle. Unlike a
rectangle, a triangle cannot be
deformed without changing the length of
one of its sides or breaking one of its
joints. In fact, one of the simplest ways
to strengthen a rectangle is to add
supports that form triangles at the
rectangle's corners or across its
diagonal length. A single support
between two diagonal corners greatly
strengthens a rectangle by turning it into
two triangles. Triangulation of material,
adds strength by eliminating lateral movement.

DAY 5
H. Making generalizations and abstractions about the lesson

Let us now summarize our lesson today.

 SAS Postulate (Side-Angle-Side)
If two sides and the included angle of one
triangle are congruent to the corresponding
two sides and the included angle of another
triangle, then the two triangles are
congruent.

 ASA Postulate (Angle-Side-Angle)

If two angles and the included side of one
triangle are congruent to the corresponding
two angles and the included side of another
triangle, then the two triangles are congruent.

 AAS or SAA Theorem (Angle-Angle-Side)

45
 If two angles and a non-included side of one triangle are congruent to the corresponding
two angles and a non-included side another triangle, then the triangles are congruent.

 SSS Postulate (Side-Side-Side)

If three sides of a triangle are congruent to the
corresponding sides of another triangle, then
the two triangles are congruent.
