congruent to the corresponding parts of another triangle, then the
triangles are congruent. Ex.

to the correspondintg parts of another right triangle, then the
triangles are congruent.
Ex. Are the triangles congruent?
Why is this true?

SUPPLEMENTARY PROBLEMS CH 4
1. Is there anything wrong with the figure at the right?
2. Let a = (-5,0), B = (5,0), and C = (2,6); let K = (5,-2), L =
(13,4), and M = (7,7). Verify that the length of each side of
triangle ABC matches the length of a side of triangle KLM. Because
of this data, it is natural to regard the triangles as being in
some sense equivalent. It is customary to call the triangles
congruent. The basis used for this judgment is called the side-
side-side (SSS) criterion. If two figures are congruent, then their
parts correspond. (Corresponding parts of congruent triangles are
congruent - CPCTC) In other words, each part of one figure has been
matched with a definite part of the other figure. In the triangles,
which sides correspond? Measure the angles. Which angles
correspond?
(DO #3-5 AT HOME AND BRING IN TRIANGLES FOR COMPARISON WITH YOUR
GROUP) 3. Using a ruler and protractor, draw a triangle that has an
8cm side and a 6cm side, which make a
30 angle. This is a side-angle-side (SAS) description. Cut out the
figure so that you can compare triangles in class. Will your
triangle be congruent to those of your classmates?
4. With the aid of a ruler and protractor, draw a triangle that has
an 8cm side, a 6 cm side, and a 45
angle that is not formed by the two given sides. This is a
side-side-angle description. Cut out your figure so that you can
compare triangles in class. Do you expect your triangle to be
congruent with your classmates? 5. With the aid of a ruler and
protractor, draw and cut out three non-congruent triangles, each
of
which has a 40 angle, and a 60 angle, and an 8cm side. One of your
triangles should have an angle-side-angle (ASA) description, while
the other two have an angle-angle-side (AAS) descriptions. What
happens when you compare your triangles with those of your
classmates?
6. Suppose that triangle ACT has been shown to be congruent to
triangle ION, with vertices A, C,
and T corresponding to vertices I, O,and N, respectively. It is
customary to record this result by writing ACT ION. Notice that
corresponding vertices occupy corresponding positions in the
equation. Let B = (5,2), A =(-1,3), G = (-5,-2), E = (1,-3), and L
= (0,0).
Using only these five labels, find as many pairs of congruent
triangles as you can, and express the congruencies
accurately.
7. How many ways are there of arranging the six letters of ACT ION
to express the two-
triangle congruence?
Geo 9 Ch 4.2-4.6 37
8. What can be concluded if it is given that a) ABC ACB b) ABC BCA
CAB? 9. The parts of two triangles can be matched so that two
angles of one triangle are congruent to the
corresponding angles of the other, and so that a side of one
triangle is congruent to the corresponding side of the other, then
the triangles must be congruent. Justify this angle-angle-
corresponding side (AAS) criterion for congruence. Would AAS be a
valid test for congruence if the word corresponding were left out
of the definition? Explain.
9. A triangle that has two sides of equal length is called
isosceles. Make up an example of an
isosceles triangle, one of whose vertices is (3,5). Give the
coordinates of the other two vertices. If you can, find a triangle
that does not have any horizontal or vertical sides.
10. Prove that in an isosceles triangle ( a triangle where two
sides are congruent), the base angles
(the angles opposite the congruent sides) are congruent. To help,
draw an auxiliary line from the vertex between the congruent sides,
bisecting the angle and intersecting the opposite side.
11. Let A = (0,0), B = (4,3), C = (2,4), P = (0,4), and Q = (-2,4).
Decide whether angles BAC and
PAQ are the same size (congruent) and give your reasons.
12. Plot the points A = (-4,0) and B = (4,0). Plot any point on the
y-axis and call it P. What can you say about that point and the
triangle it creates with A and B.
13. Give an example of a point that is the same distance from (3,0)
as it is from (7,0). Find lots of
examples. Describe the configuration of all such points. In
particular how does this configuration relate to the two given
points?
14. Compare your example with those in your group.
a) What can you say about about all of the points that lie on the
perpendicular bisector of a segment?
b) What can you say about the bisector of the vertex angle in an
isosceles triangle? ?14. Let A = (-2,3) B = (6,7), and C = (-1,6).
a) Find an equation for the perpendicular bisector of segment AB.
b) Find an equation for the perpendicular bisector of segment BC.
c) Find coordinates for a point K that is equidistant from A, B,
and C. 15. Triangle ABC is isosceles, with AB congruent to AC.
Extend segment BA to a point T (in other
words, A should be between B and T). Explain why <TAC must be
twice the size of <ABC. 16. Given triangle ABC is isosceles,
with AB congruent to AC. Extend segment AB to a point P
(where B is between A and P) so that BP is the same length as BC.
In the resulting triangle APC, show that angle ACP is exactly three
times the size of angle APC.

17. Simplify the equation 2222 )1()7()5()3( yxyx . Interpret your
result.
(Challenge) 18. A segment that joins one of the vertices of a
triangle to the midpoint of the opposite side is called
a median. Consider the triangle defined by A = (–2,0), B = (6,0),
and C = (4,6). (a) Find an equation for the median drawn from A to
BC. (b) Find an equation for the median drawn from B to AC. (c)
Find an equation for the median drawn from C to AB. (d) Show that
the three medians are concurrent, by finding coordinates for their
common point. The point of concurrence is called the centroid of
triangle ABC.
19. An altitude of a triangle is a segment that joins one of the
three vertices to a point on the opposite
side, the intersection being perpendicular. In some triangles, it
may be necessary to extend the side to meet the altitude. Now let A
= (0,0), B = (10,0), and C = (4,12). (a) Find the length of the
altitude from C to AB. (b) Find an equation for the line that
contains the altitude from A to BC.
20. Given the triangle PQR with the points P = (-3, 6), Q = (2,0),
and R = (6,0). (a) Find the altitude to segment QR from the point
P. (b) Find the equation of the altitude to segment QR 21. There
are four special types of lines associated with triangles: Medians,
perpendicular
bisectors, altitudes, and angle bisectors. (a) Which of these lines
must go through the vertices of the triangle? (b) Is it possible
for a median to also be an altitude? Explain. (c) Is it possible
for an altitude to also be an angle bisector? Explain.
22. Given a triangle, the point where two medians intersect (the
centroid) is twice as far from one end of a median as it is from
the other end of the same median. Triangle PQR is isosceles, with
PQ = 13 = PR and QR = 10. Find the distance from P to the centroid
of PQR. Find the distance from Q to the centroid of PQR.
