CPM Homework Help : INT1 Problem 7-25

On your paper, sketch the two triangles at right and label them with the following information:
$m∠F = 25º$
$m∠A = 73º$
${BC} = {EF} = 44$ cm
$m∠C = m∠G = 82º$

Are the triangles congruent? If so, describe a series of rigid transformations that maps one triangle onto the next. If they are not congruent, explain why not.

Hint:

Remember that the interior angles of a triangle total 180°.
Set up an equation for each triangle to help find the measure of the unknown angles.
How does this help you to determine if the triangles are congruent?

More Help:

Remember congruent means that all corresponding angles are equal and all corresponding sides are the same measure.

2 triangles, with different orientation, one with vertices, A, B, & C. The other with vertices, E, F, & G.
