MA5.2-14MG
Calculates the angle sum of any polygon and uses minimum conditions to prove triangles are congruent or similar
-
Formulate proofs involving congruent triangles and angle properties (ACMMG243)
-
Write formal proofs of the congruence of triangles, preserving matching order of vertices
Examples
-
Use the congruence of triangles to prove properties of the special quadrilaterals, such as: CCT
the opposite angles of a parallelogram are equal
the diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other
the diagonals of a rectangle are equal
