This video tutorial covers chapter 4, section 5, focusing on methods to prove triangle congruence. It explains the Angle-Angle-Side (AAS) theorem and the Hypotenuse-Leg (HL) theorem, which is specific to right triangles. The tutorial includes examples and practice problems to reinforce understanding. By the end, students should be able to apply these theorems to prove triangle congruence.

What is the main focus of Chapter 4, Section 5?

• Proving triangles are similar

• Finding the perimeter of triangles

• Proving triangles are congruent

• Calculating the area of triangles

Which theorem states that two triangles are congruent if two angles and a non-included side of one triangle are congruent to the corresponding parts of another triangle?

• ASA Theorem

• SSS Theorem

• AAS Theorem

• HL Theorem

In the AAS theorem, what is the position of the side relative to the two angles?

• Not between the two angles

• Between the two angles

• Opposite to one angle

• Adjacent to one angle

What is the Hypotenuse-Leg (HL) theorem specifically used for?

• Right triangles

• Equilateral triangles

• Isosceles triangles

• General triangles

CCSS.HSG.SRT.B.5

Why is the HL theorem applicable only to right triangles?

• Because it involves two sides and an angle

• Because it involves the hypotenuse and a leg

• Because it involves two angles and a side

• Because it involves three sides

Which of the following is NOT a valid method to prove triangle congruency?

• SSA

• ASA

• AAS

• SSS
