2. Review
Review on solving corresponding parts of congruent triangles
Given that ∆MYX ≅ ∆JAN, ∠M = 40° and ∠A = 70°, find ∠X.
Solution Since ∆MYX ≅ ∆JAN, the corresponding parts, particularly, the angles are
congruent. By CPCTC, we can say that ∠M ≅ ∠J, ∠Y ≅ ∠A and ∠X ≅ ∠N. To find
∠X, we need to focus on ∆MYX. We know that ∠M = 40° and since ∠Y ≅ ∠A, we can
say that ∠Y = 70°.
B. Lesson Proper
1. Motivation:
Activity1. My Home (By Group)
Questions:
1. How do you find the activity? Did you find it difficult to prove the congruence
of two triangles?
2. Why do you think the trusses in our houses form congruent triangles?
3. List down at least five things in your house, buildings or other structures found
in your community where congruent triangles are used. Explain the
importance of congruent triangles in these structures.
2. Presentation of the Lesson
The teacher will discuss the
Let us now recall the conditions under which two triangles are congruent. And now,
let us apply the congruence postulates and theorems in proving congruent triangles
using the illustrative examples below.
SAS (Side-Angle-Side) Congruence Postulate. If two sides and an included angle
of one triangle are congruent to the corresponding two sides and the included angle
of another triangle, then the triangles are congruent.
ASA (Angle-Side-Angle) Congruence Postulate. If two angles and the included

side of one triangle are congruent to the corresponding two angles and an included
side of another triangle, then the triangles are congruent.
SSS (Side-Side-Side) Congruence Postulate. If three sides of one triangle are

congruent to the corresponding three sides of another triangle, then the triangles are
congruent.
Steps in Proving Congruence of Two Triangles
Step 1. Identify what the given are, and what is to be proved. Mark the given
information on the diagram.
Step 2. Identify the congruence theorem to be used and the additional information
needed and why.
Now, let us apply the congruence postulates and theorems in proving congruent
triangles using the illustrative examples below.
AAS (Angle-Angle-Side) Congruence Theorem
If two angles and the non-included side of one triangle are congruent respectively to
the two angles and the non-included side of another triangle, then the two triangles
are congruent.
In Figure 1, given that ∆DOG ≅ ∆CAT,

D ≅ C , G ≅ T as marked, while DO ≅ CA tells
the congruence of the non-included sides.
The proof of this theorem is presented in Example 3.
3. Application
4. Analysis
1).What are the identified congruent corresponding parts?
2).What congruence postulate and congruence theorem can be used to prove that
∆𝐵𝐴𝑅 ≅ ∆𝐹𝑈𝑅?
IV. Evaluation
Activity 1: Give Me!

V. Assignment/Agreement
Given the figure below, congruent parts are marked. Give additional parts to prove
that the triangles are congruent and name the postulate or theorem that justifies the
congruence.
