Solve It! One of the tent flaps was damaged in a storm. Can you use the other flap as a pattern to replace it?
Explain. You may also use the canvas to help illustrate your explanation.
Take Note: Explain why Side-Side-Angle is not a valid method for proving two triangles congruent. You may also use the can canvas to help illustrate your explanation.
Take Note: Define hypotenuse (of a right triangle). On the canvas, sketch a right triangle and label its hypotenuse.
Problem 1 Got It? Complete the proof on the canvas.
You may also complete your work on paper or on a whiteboard and upload a clear picture of it to the canvas.
Problem 1 Got It? Reasoning: Your friend says, "Suppose you have two triangles with congruent hypotenuses and one pair of congruent legs. It does not matter which leg in the first triangle is congruent to which leg in the second triangle. The triangles will be congruent." Is your friend correct? Explain. You may also use the canvas to help illustrate your explanation.
Problem 2 Got It? Complete the proof on the canvas.
You may also complete your work on paper or on a whiteboard and upload a clear picture of it to the canvas.
Take Note: Summarize the mathematical content of this lesson. What topics, ideas, and vocabulary were introduced?
Take Note: Define leg (of a right triangle). On the canvas, sketch a right triangle and label its legs.
Take Note: Sumamrize The Hypotenuse-Leg (HL) Theorem. You may use the canvas to help illustrate your description.
