Ch 14.3 AAS Exploration
The following activity explores the possibility of AAS Triangle Congruence.
- is fixed to be congruent to .
- is fixed to be congruent to
- Segment B'C' will always be congruent to segment BC.
- The blue points on triangle ABC will alter the side and angle measurements of the triangle.
- The red points allow you to manipulate certain sides lengths and angle measurements of triangle A'B'C'.
- Manipulate the red points of A'B'C to become a triangle congruent to triangle ABC. Was it possible? Why or why not?
- Can you find a way to manipulate the red points of A'B'C become a triangle different than triangle ABC? If so, what does this mean about AAS Congruence? If not, why not?
