Triangle congruence and similarity
... • Finally, this approach makes it possible to discuss the similarity of curves (such as circles and parabolas), which could not be done under the traditional definition of similarity because it relied on equal angles and proportional sides. One of the consequences of this change is the need for som ...

If a line crossing two other lines makes the interior angles on the same side less than two right angles, then these two lines will meet on that ...

Discovering and Proving Triangle Properties
... Making and labeling a diagram is a good technique to help you think about a problem. In this case, your drawing will show you that there is only one possible triangle with an altitude of the specific length you drew and the angle you drew between the triangle’s base and another side. To explain why, ...

... The Law of Cosines can be used to describe a relationship between a, b, and c for any triangle with sides of length a, b, and c. If, for triangles with sides a, b, and c (where c is the length of the longest side), a2 + b2 = c2 holds for right triangles and only right triangles, the question arises ...

Isosceles Triangles
... Here you’ll learn the definition of an isosceles triangle as well as two theorems about isosceles triangles: 1) The angle bisector of the vertex is the perpendicular bisector of the base; and 2) The base angles are congruent. What if you were presented with an isoceles triangle and told that its bas ...
