Understanding the Angle-Side Theorem and Its Applications

The video tutorial covers the angle side theorem, also known as the base angle theorem, which states that if two sides of a triangle are congruent, then the angles opposite those sides are congruent. The converse is also true. The video provides examples and problems to illustrate these concepts, including solving for unknown angles and using inequalities in triangles. It also demonstrates how to apply the theorem in two column proofs, emphasizing the relationship between congruent sides and angles in triangles.

What does the Angle-Side Theorem state about the relationship between sides and angles in a triangle?

• If two sides are congruent, the angles opposite them are congruent.

• If two angles are congruent, the sides adjacent to them are congruent.

• If two sides are congruent, the angles adjacent to them are congruent.

• If two angles are congruent, the sides opposite them are not congruent.
