GCSE Revision Pack Refs: 169, 170. a. What appears to be true about the lengths of the three tower braces that form a triangle?. b. It also appears that the three angles of the triangles formed by the braces are congruent. If this is true, what is the measure of each of the angles?. Objectives: To use detours in proofs and to apply the midpoint formula.. Procedure for Detour Proofs. . Determine which triangles must be congruent to reach the required conclusion. . Attempt to prove that these triangles are congruent. If you don’t have enough information to prove them congruent, take a DETOUR (follow steps 3 – 5). . Geometry for Teachers. Von Christopher G.

Diagonal – connects two non consecutive vertices. Concave – at least one diagonal outside polygon, dented in. Using Congruent Triangles. Congruent triangles have congruent corresponding parts. So, if you can prove the two triangles are congruent then you know their corresponding parts must be congruent as well.. Lewis Carroll/Charles Dodgson.

Peter Heath: "An inveterate publisher of trifles [who] was forever putting out pamphlets, papers, broadsheets, and books on mathematical topics [that] earned him no reputation beyond that of a crotchety, if sometimes amusing, controversialist, a compiler of puzzles and curiosities, and a busy yet ineffective reformer on elementary points of computation and instructional method. In the higher reaches of the subject he made no mark at all, and has left none since." . Chapter 4. Objective. List corresponding parts.. Prove triangles congruent (ASA, SAS, AAS, SSS, HL).
