you're going to
fall on your face a
few times...

think you'd take it
quite that
literally.

Once you have shown triangles are congruent, then you
can make some CONCLUSIONS about all of the
sides and __________)
angles
corresponding parts (_______
of
those triangles!
Corresponding Parts of
Congruent Triangles are

Yes; ASA
If <B= 3x and ,Y = 5x –9,
find x.

A geometry class is trying to find the distance across a small
lake. The distances they measured are shown in the diagram.
Explain how to use their measurements to find the distance
across the lake.
30 yd
40 yd
40 yd
24.5 yd
30 yd
Vertical angles are congruent.
The triangles are congruent by SAS.
The width of the lake has to be 24.5 yd by CPCTC.
