A two-column geometric proof consists of a list of statements, and
the reasons that we know those statements are true. The
statements are listed in a column on the left, and the reasons for
which the statements can be made are listed in the right column.
Every step of the proof (that is, every conclusion that is made) is a
row in the two-column proof.
Writing a proof consists of a few different steps.
1. Draw the figure that illustrates what is to be proved. The figure
may already be drawn for you, or you may have to draw it
yourself.
2. List the given statements, and then list the conclusion to be
proved. Now you have a beginning and an end to the proof.
3. Mark the figure according to what you can deduce about it from the
information given. This is the step of the proof in which you actually
find out how the proof is to be made, and whether or not you are able
to prove what is asked. Congruent sides, angles, etc. should all be
marked so that you can see for yourself what must be written in the
proof to convince the reader that you are right in your conclusion.
4. Write the steps down carefully, without skipping even the simplest
one. Some of the first steps are often the given statements (but not
always), and the last step is the conclusion that you set out to prove.
A sample proof looks like this:
Given:
Segment AD bisects segment BC. Segment BC bisects segment AD.
Prove: Triangles ABM and DCM are congruent.
Notice that when the SAS postulate was used, the numbers in parentheses correspond to the numbers of the statements in which each side and angle was shown to be congruent. Anytime it is helpful to refer to certain parts of a proof, you can include the numbers of the appropriate statements in parentheses after the reason.
Here are some properties you can use as reasons in a proof: General:
Reflexive Property A quantity is congruent (equal) to itself. a = a
Symmetric Property If a = b, then b = a.
Transitive Property If a = b and b = c, then a = c.
Addition Postulate If equal quantities are added to equal quantities, the sums are equal.
Subtraction Postulate If equal quantities are subtracted from equal quantities, the differences are equal.
Multiplication Postulate
If equal quantities are multiplied by equal quantities, the products are equal. (also Doubles of equal quantities are equal.)
Division Postulate If equal quantities are divided by equal nonzero quantities, the quotients are equal. (also Halves of equal quantities are equal.)
Substitution Postulate
A quantity may be substituted for its equal in any expression.
Partition Postulate
The whole is equal to the sum of its parts. Also: Betweeness of Points: AB + BC = AC Angle Addition Postulate: m<ABC + m<CBD = m<ABD
Construction Two points determine a straight line.
Construction From a given point on (or not on) a line, one and only one perpendicular can be drawn to
Angles:
Right Angles All right angles are congruent.
Straight Angles All straight angles are congruent.
Congruent Supplements Supplements of the same angle, or congruent angles, are
congruent.
Congruent Complements Complements of the same angle, or congruent angles, are
congruent.
Linear Pair If two angles form a linear pair, they are supplementary.
Vertical Angles Vertical angles are congruent.
Triangle Sum The sum of the interior angles of a triangle is 180º.
Exterior Angle
The measure of an exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the
sum of the measures of the two non-adjacent interior angles.
The measure of an exterior angle of a triangle is greater than
either non-adjacent interior angle.
Base Angle Theorem
(Isosceles Triangle)
If two sides of a triangle are congruent, the angles opposite these
sides are congruent.
Base Angle Converse
(Isosceles Triangle)
If two angles of a triangle are congruent, the sides opposite these
angles are congruent.
Triangles:
Side-Side-Side (SSS) Congruence
If three sides of one triangle are congruent to three sides of another triangle, then the triangles are congruent.
Side-Angle-Side (SAS) Congruence
If two sides and the included angle of one triangle are congruent to the corresponding parts of another triangle, the triangles are congruent.
Angle-Side-Angle (ASA) Congruence
If two angles and the included side of one triangle are congruent to the corresponding parts of another triangle, the triangles are congruent.
Angle-Angle-Side (AAS) Congruence
If two angles and the non-included side of one triangle are congruent to the corresponding parts of another triangle, the triangles are congruent.
Hypotenuse-Leg (HL) Congruence (right triangle)
If the hypotenuse and leg of one right triangle are congruent to the corresponding parts of another right triangle, the two right triangles are congruent.
CPCTC Corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent.
Angle-Angle (AA) Similarity
If two angles of one triangle are congruent to two angles of another triangle, the triangles are similar.
SSS for Similarity If the three sets of corresponding sides of two triangles are
in proportion, the triangles are similar.
SAS for Similarity
If an angle of one triangle is congruent to the
corresponding angle of another triangle and the lengths of
the sides including these angles are in proportion, the
triangles are similar.
Side Proportionality If two triangles are similar, the corresponding sides are in
proportion.
Mid-segment Theorem (also called mid-line)
The segment connecting the midpoints of two sides of a
triangle is parallel to the third side and is half as long.
Sum of Two Sides The sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle must
be greater than the third side
Longest Side
In a triangle, the longest side is across from the largest
angle.
In a triangle, the largest angle is across from the longest
side.
Altitude Rule
The altitude to the hypotenuse of a right triangle is the
mean proportional between the segments into which it
divides the hypotenuse.
Leg Rule
Each leg of a right triangle is the mean proportional
between the hypotenuse and the projection of the leg on
the hypotenuse.
