Principal Resource Focus 7: Congruence- This topic focuses on proving triangle congruence theorems and using the theorems to determine whether triangles Carnegie Chapter 7 Congruence through Transformations are congruent. Triangle congruence is covered, including right triangle and isosceles triangle congruence theorems. Students are given Geometry for Enjoyment and Challenge- Chapter 3.2-3.7- Use in opportunities to explore the congruence of corresponding parts of congruent triangles as well as continuing work with proof, introducing conjunction with Carnegie Chapter 7, and Carnegie 8.1, 8.2 for indirect proof, or proof by contradiction. Throughout, students apply congruence theorems to solve problems. homework and supplemental lessons, as needed Big Ideas: G.CO.A Experiment with transformations in the plane G.CO.B Understand congruence in terms of rigid motions Standards Estimated Time G.CO.C Prove geometric theorems G.CO.A.2 G.CO.D Make geometric constructions G.CO.A.3 11 days G.CO.A.5 G.CO.B.6 Learning Goal and Scale: G.CO.B.7 G.CO.B.8 G.CO.C.9 Pre-requisite skills/standards: G.CO.C.10 Draw, construct and describe geometrical figures and describe the relationships between them (7.G.A) G.CO.D.12 Understand congruence and similarity using physical models, transparencies, or geometry software (8.G.A)
