  1. 4-6 Triangle Congruence: SSS and SAS Holt Geometry Section 4.6 Holt McDougal Geometry

  2. Warm Up 1.Name the angle formed by AB and AC. 2. Name the three sides of ABC. 3.∆QRS  ∆LMN. Name all pairs of congruent corresponding parts.

  3. Remember! Adjacent triangles share a side, so you can apply the Reflexive Property to get a pair of congruent parts.

  4. Use SSS to explain why ∆ABC  ∆DBC.

  5. Use SSS to explain why ∆ABC  ∆CDA.

  6. An included angle is an angle formed by two adjacent sides of a polygon. B is the included angle between sides AB and BC.

  7. It can also be shown that only two pairs of congruent corresponding sides are needed to prove the congruence of two triangles if the included angles are also congruent.

  8. Caution The letters SAS are written in that order because the congruent angles must be between pairs of congruent corresponding sides.

  9. The diagram shows part of the support structure for a tower. Use SAS to explain why ∆XYZ  ∆VWZ.

  10. Use SAS to explain why ∆ABC  ∆DBC.

  11. Show that the triangles are congruent for the given value of the variable. ∆MNO  ∆PQR, when x = 5.

  12. Show that the triangles are congruent for the given value of the variable. ∆STU  ∆VWX, when y = 4.

  13. Show that ∆ADB  ∆CDB, t = 4.

  14. Given: BC║ AD, BC AD Prove: ∆ABD  ∆CDB Statements Reasons

  15. Given: QP bisects RQS. QR QS Prove: ∆RQP  ∆SQP Statements Reasons

  16. Given: B is the midpoint of DC, AD = AC Prove: ΔADB = ΔACB

  17. 26° Lesson Quiz: Part I 1. Show that∆ABC  ∆DBC, when x = 6. Which postulate, if any, can be used to prove the triangles congruent? 3. 2.

  18. Statements Reasons Lesson Quiz: Part II 4. Given: PN bisects MO,PN  MO Prove: ∆MNP  ∆ONP
