Using Theorems to Prove Triangle Congruency: ASA, SAS, and SSA Methods

This lesson focuses on the application of congruency theorems to prove triangle congruency using the ASA, SAS, and SSA rules. Students will learn to place congruency marks as evidence in their proofs, understand the correspondence of triangle parts through the Corresponding Parts of Congruent Shapes are Congruent (CPCSC) principle, and practice various examples, including alternate interior angles and midpoint definitions. The assignment includes exercises from the textbook to solidify understanding.
