Objectives

Compare sides in triangles to check for congruence

Estimated Time

Prerequisites/Instructions, prior preparations, if any

Prior knowledge of point, lines, angles, closed figures

Materials/ Resources needed

Digital : Computer, geogebra application, projector.
Non digital : Worksheet and pencil, triangles of same and different shapes
3. Geogebra files : “Triangle congruence.ggb”

Process (How to do the activity)

Prior hands on activity

Three triangles are distributed to groups of students.
Children should identify the triangles that are congruent.
They can name the vertices in the given triangles.
Write down the sides and angles that are coinciding in the two triangles.

Use the geogebra file - “Triangle congruence.ggb”

How many triangles you observe?
Are all the triangles same, point out the triangles that are same.
How can you say they are same? What can you do to check if the two triangles are congruent?
What parameters of triangles are required to know if they are congruent?
What about the third triangle is it the same as the other two, what you should do to show the triangle is same as the others – concept pf reflection can be discussed

HW:

Make two triangles of same sizes. Cut it and verify they are congruent.
Construct one triangle – Base = 3, 4 and 5 are other sides. Another triangle base = 5; and two sides are 3 and 4. Another triangle base = 4; and two sides are 3 and 5. Does the order of sides matter in a triangle?

Evaluation at the end of the activity

Students should be able to understand, if 3 corresponding sides of two triangles are same then the triangles are congruent.
Students should also understand that the sequence of sides examined in the triangles need not be same for the triangles to be congruent.

 === Objectives ===
-Content objectives  - what content areas
+Compare sides in triangles to check for congruence
-Skill objectives - what specific skills
-Classroom objectives - to demo peer learning, to make a classroom resource, etc -
-All these kinds of objectives need not be there for every activity.  And no need to list them as different headings.  This is only for our reference when we are developing activities.

+*Three	triangles are distributed to groups of students.
-What kinds of questions you can ask for that activity
+*Children	should identify 	the triangles that	are	congruent.
+*They	can name	the vertices in the given triangles.
-What are the student follow-up activities/ questions you can give?
+*Write	down the sides and	angles that	are coinciding in the two triangles.
+Use	the geogebra file - “[https://ggbm.at/fyzmy4nv Triangle congruence.ggb]”
