  1. Angle Side Theorems Lesson 3.7

  2. Theorem 20: If two sides of a triangle are congruent, the angles opposite the sides are congruent. IF Then

  3. Theorem 21: If two angles of a triangle are congruent, the sides opposite the angles are congruent. If Then

  4. These are ways to prove an isosceles triangle: • Two sides are congruent. • Two angles are congruent. Markings on a triangle: Smaller side matches opposite < Medium side opposite med < Larger side opposite larger <

  5. Theorem: If two sides are not congruent, then the angles opposite are not congruent. Theorem: If two angles of a triangle are not congruent, their opposite sides are not congruent.

  6. Equilateral and Equiangular are interchangeable in triangles. Not in all shapes! Rhombus: equilateral but not equiangular.

  7. Rectangle: equiangular but not equilateral.

  8. A 6x-45 15+x B C Given: AC>AB m B + m C <180 m B = 6x – 45 m C = 15 + x What are the restrictions on the values of x?

  9. You must solve two unknowns. m B > m C 6x – 45 > 15 + x 5x > 60 x > 12 m B + m  C < 180 6x – 45 + 15 + x < 180 7x < 210 x < 30 Therefore, x must be between 12 and 30.
