VOCABULARY1. Included Side: The side between two consecutive
angles in a triangle

Theorem 4.5 - Angle-Angle-Side (AAS) Congruence:
Wednesday, February 8, 2012
VOCABULARY1. Included Side: The side between two consecutive
angles in a triangle
Postulate 4.3 - Angle-Side-Angle (ASA) Congruence: If two angles and the included side of one triangle are congruent to two angles and included side of a second triangle, then the triangles are congruent
Theorem 4.5 - Angle-Angle-Side (AAS) Congruence:

VOCABULARY1. Included Side: The side between two consecutive
angles in a triangle
Postulate 4.3 - Angle-Side-Angle (ASA) Congruence: If two angles and the included side of one triangle are congruent to two angles and included side of a second triangle, then the triangles are congruent
Theorem 4.5 - Angle-Angle-Side (AAS) Congruence: If two angles and the nonincluded side of one triangle are congruent to the corresponding angles and nonincluded side of a second triangle, then the triangles are congruent

WHAT ABOUT SSA?
Try drawing a triangle with two sides that are 5 inches and 3 inches. Then, draw a nonincluded angle that is 30°. See
how many different triangles you can draw.

EXAMPLE 3On a template design for a certain envelope, the top
and bottom flaps are isosceles triangles with congruent bases and base angles. If EV = 8 cm and the height of
the isosceles triangle is 3 cm, find PO.

EXAMPLE 3On a template design for a certain envelope, the top
and bottom flaps are isosceles triangles with congruent bases and base angles. If EV = 8 cm and the height of
the isosceles triangle is 3 cm, find PO.
EV ≅ PL, so each segment has a measure of 8 cm. If an auxiliary line is drawn
from point O perpendicular to PL, you will have a right triangle formed.

EV ≅ PL, so each segment has a measure of 8 cm. If an auxiliary line is drawn
from point O perpendicular to PL, you will have a right triangle formed.
In the right triangle, we have one leg (the height) of 3 cm. The auxiliary line will bisect PL, as point O is equidistant
from P and L.
