Congruent Triangles
Is this enough to show the two triangles are congruent? Small groups work through different combinations of constructing triangles from congruent parts to determine which combinations create only congruent triangles. Participants use the...

Why can't We Use SSA to Prove Triangles Congruent?
Students investigate triangles and congruences. In this geometry lesson, students differentiate between inductive and deductive reasoning. They differentiate between similar and congruent triangles.

THE MEAN INDEX CARD
Young scholars cut an index card to create three similar right triangles and explore the congruencies and proportions that exist. They investigate the properties of lines and concepts of congruency, similarity, tangency and symmetry of...

Triangles Congruency Theorems
Tenth graders investigate the theorems of ASA, AAS, AAA and ASA. In this geometry instructional activity, 10th graders discuss the theorems of triangles and how it is used to solve for missing sides or angles. They review how two angles...

Triangle Congruence
Students use web applet to create congruent triangles. In this geometry lesson, students differentiate between congruent and similar. They create shapes online and drag those shapes around to create visuals of triangles.
