Week 11: Congruent Triangles - Part II

Like I said in my last post, there is very much to cover with congruent triangles. Thankfully we were able to finish up the new material in class today, so we will be able to have the test as scheduled! To review the material we covered this week in class, I have prepared an interesting assignment. Given what you ought to know about the definitions of quadrilaterals, with diagonals list all sets of congruent triangles (if you have trouble remembering how to find congruent triangles, then take a look at last week's post to review).

For example:
For each type of quadrilateral, I want to see a diagram, a list of the properties of the quadrilateral (label as "given"), a list of sets of congruent triangles, and the total number of congruent triangles. This assignment will be a very helpful tool in studying for next week's midterm exam. As always, if you have any questions, then I will be happy to answer them at any time!


This week's goal:

  • Be able to construct proofs of congruent triangles.
  • Review properties of quadrilaterals.
Due dates:
  • Five unique types of quadrilaterals with their corresponding lists of congruent triangles will be due next week (day of the midterm).
