Learn to solve problems using the properties of right triangles and the concept of congruence. Understand LL, HA, LA, and HL correspondences and name postulates when identifying congruence or non-congruence. Practice solving equations involving right triangles.
E N D
5.2 Right Triangle Congruence • Use properties of Right Triangle • Use Congruence of Right Triangle. • Solving Problems by using Congruence of Right Triangle
Right Triangle:A Triangle with one Right Angle ( 90 degrees)
HA correspondence • HL correspondence • LL correspondence • LA correspondence • AA correspondence The Congruence Postulates
Name That Postulate (when possible) HA HL LL LA
Name That Postulate (when possible) Not Congruent LL LL LA
Name That Postulate (when possible) Not Congruent HA HA Not Congruent
Solution: 2x + 3 = 4x + 1 2x = 4 X = 2 3y + 8 = 4y – 7 8 = y – 7 Y = 15
Solution: 2x + 4 = 56 2x = 52 X = 26 2y - 9 = 23 2y = 32 Y = 16
Solution: y + 50 = 3y + 20 2y =30 Y = 15 2x – 4 = 6 2x = 10 X = 5
