Lesson Plan Triangles

The document provides a lesson plan for teaching triangles to a Class 8. It includes the following: 1) The topic is triangles and the sub-topic is congruence of triangles. Learning outcomes are to define congruency, understand the criteria for congruency using different strategies like cutting and pasting. 2) The key criteria for congruence - two triangles are congruent if their corresponding sides are equal in length and corresponding angles are equal in measure. There are five ways to determine congruence: SSS, SAS, ASA, AAS, and HL or RHS. 3) Activities include using cutouts to experimentally verify the different criteria for congruency.

Notice that saying triangle Worksheets
ABC is congruent to triangle
DEF is not the same as saying
triangle ABC is congruent to
triangle FED. For example the
first statement means, among
other things, that AB = DE and
angle A = angle D. The second
statement says that AB = FE
and angle A = angle F. This is
very different!
The notation convention for

Triangle Congruence:
CPCT
Students will start thinking that
if two triangles are congruent
then the three pairs of
corresponding sides are
congruent and the three pairs of
congruent angles are also
congruent.
Students will start using
CPCT to prove parts of
congruent triangles are
congruent
This result can be proved in
many ways. One of the proofs
is given here.
• To understand that if in Proof :We are given an

versa.

Let us draw the bisector of ∠ A


and let D be the point of
intersection of this bisector of
∠ A and BC.
In Δ BAD and Δ CAD,
AB = AC (Given)
∠BAD = ∠CAD (By
construction)
AD = AD (Common)
So, Δ BAD ≅ Δ CAD (By SAS
rule)
So, ∠ABD = ∠ACD, since they
are corresponding angles of
congruent triangles.

So, ∠B = ∠C
Is the converse also true?That
is: If two angles of any triangle
are equal, can we conclude that
the sides opposite to them are
also equal? Students will
aexplore and generalize the
more properties of triangles
