 Curriculum Content

  • Use the tests SSS, ASA, SAS and RHS to prove two triangles are congruent.
  • Apply congruency rules to solve problems
  • Use the three similarity tests to prove two triangles are similar, that is, corresponding sides are in proportions, all three angles are equal, two pairs of corresponding sides are in proportion and their included angles are equal.
  • Applications of similar triangles such as finding areas and volumes of similar shapes.
