SSS Exploration
Testing SSS Congruence
In this activity you will determine if knowing three pairs of corresponding sides are congruent (SSS) is enough information to prove two triangles congruent.
Use the given line segments, equal to sides of the given triangle, to create a second triangle.
Use the “Angle” tool to measure all the angles of the new triangle.
Are the triangles always congruent when the three pairs of corresponding sides are congruent?
