SSS Triangle Congruence Exploration
Set the segments to the desired length.
For each combination of side lengths, rotate the segments at C1 and C2 to determine the triangles you can create.
· Are you able to create more than one unique triangle for each combination of side lengths?
· What does this tell you?
· If the condition creates congruent triangles, describe what rigid motions could be used to test they are congruent.
