Common Core Math - HS Geometry
Lesson Plan
Use congruence and similarity to solve
Goals / Objectives
Select appropriate congruence criteria (ASA, SAS, SSS, AAS) to prove triangles congruent in multi-step problems
Select appropriate similarity criteria (AA, SAS similarity, SSS similarity) to prove triangles similar in multi-step problems
Use triangle congruence to prove relationships in geometric figures such as properties of quadrilaterals, medians, and angle bisectors
Use triangle similarity to solve problems involving indirect measurement, proportional relationships, and geometric means
Combine congruence and similarity criteria strategically to solve complex geometric problems
Justify each step in a geometric proof using previously established theorems and definitions
