4.3 Congruent Triangles and Proofs Integ. Math
CPCTC Once congruence is established you can conclude that all pairs of corresponding angles and segments are congruent
Isosceles triangle theorem: If two sides of a triangle are congruent, then the angles opposite those sides are congruent. Aka base angles of an isosceles triangle are congruent.
Corollary 1: if a triangle is equilateral then it is equiangular. Corollary 2: the measure of each angle of an equilateral triangle is 60°
An artist is positioning the design elements for a new company logo An artist is positioning the design elements for a new company logo. At the center of the logo is a triangle show in the figure. Find m<P.
For another logo, the designer draws an isosceles triangle ABC where AC and BC are equal and one of the base angles in 73°. Find m<C.
Base Angles Theorem If two angles of a triangle are congruent, then the sides opposite those angles are congruent.
