Learning Target Students will understand how much information is needed to decide if two triangles are congruent.

Connect to Prior Understanding What do we remember about Problem 2. 1 We translated ABCD 2 cm to match C with P We rotated ABCD counterclockwise to move to see if D matched with Q. We found that corresponding sides and angles were congruent.

2. 2 Supporting the World Video: http: //dashweb. pearsoncmg. com/main. html? r= 15512&p=402 Can you perform similar transformations to show whether any two triangles are congruent? Are any of the triangles congruent? How do you know?

Problem 2. 2 A-F Work with a group of 3 -4 students to complete A-F.

Group Work Norms • Work on the investigation with your group of four • Make sure everyone in your group participates • Answer all questions thoroughly • If you have a question raise your hand so that I can help you.

Problem 2. 2 In this problem you are going to focus on congruent triangles. Triangles are a very special family of geometric figures. They are used in many construction projects to provide strength and stability for structures. You will need lab sheet 2. 2 A-F Discuss with your group how you can decide if triangles are congruent. What tools could you use to help you determine if figures are congruent?

Questions • Did you flip your tracing paper over? What line of symmetry are you thinking of? • After you flip your tracing over this line do you need any other transformations? • What did you do first in Question D? • Were all the triangles congruent? • How do you know they aren’t congruent? • Do the angles in Question E match?

Share answers • Did other groups use different order for moving their figures? • Did you measure angles and sides before deciding if figures were congruent? • How should you name the triangles to show the corresponding congruent parts? • How did you know that the triangles Is in Question C are not congruent? • How many sides do you have to measure to know that a pair of triangles are not congruent? • How do you know the triangles in Question E are not congruent?

Rate your understanding Students will understand that two figures are congruent if one can move one figure unto the other by a sequence of reflections, rotations and/or translations and will be able to show congruence by moving a copy of the original onto the figure.

Sorry the copy did not transfer to the Power. Point very well! Answers for problem 2. 2
