[b]Given: Two angle measures[/b][color=#980000] [/color][br][br][color=#000000]Feel free to move the locations of the [/color][color=#38761d][b]BIG GREEN VERTICES[/b][/color][color=#000000] of either triangle before slowly dragging the slider. [/color][b] [/b][i][color=#ff0000]Pay careful attention to what happens as you do.[/color][/i]
What geometry transformations did you observe in the applet above? List them. [br][br][br]
How are these transformations different from the previous examples?
Dilation is not a rigid motion.
[i]So....[/i][br][br]If 2 angles are congruent to 2 angles of another triangle, can we say that those 2 triangles are congruent? Fully explain why or why not.
The triangles are not congruent because rigid motions do not preserve distance.
