Gizmo : Geometry - Student Exploration Proving Triangles Congruent - 2021 | Practice Questions
Student Exploration: Proving Triangles Congruent Gizmo Warm-up Buzz wants to make a triangle that is congruent to, or identical to, the triangle described by his uncle. But how much information is needed to guarantee that one triangle is congruent to another? You can use the Proving Triangles Congruent Gizmo™ to find out. 1. Under Conditions, check that None is selected. Drag each of the six vertices to form a variety of triangles. A. Is it possible to create two triangles that are not congruent? Use the gizmo to prove.. 2. Under Conditions, select S. Notice that one pair of sides is now congruent. Drag the vertices to form a variety of triangles. A. Can you make two triangles that are not congruent? Use the gizmo to prove.. Activity A: Congruent sides and angles Get the Gizmo ready: • Under Conditions, select A. 1. Check that A is selected under Conditions. Notice that B and E are congruent. Do you think this condition guarantees that the two triangles are always congruent? Explain. 2. Drag the vertices until the triangles are clearly not congruent. 3. For each condition listed below, write “yes” or “no” in the second column to tell whether you think the condition guarantees congruency.
