Frequently Asked Questions
A triangle is a closed figure formed by three line segments and has three vertices, three sides, and three angles.
When two triangles have the same shape and size, their corresponding sides and angles are equal; they are said to be congruent.
The main congruence rules are SSS, SAS, ASA, AAS, and RHS for right triangles.
Two triangles are similar if their corresponding angles are equal and corresponding sides are in proportion.
AAA / AA, SAS similarity, and SSS similarity.
If two angles of one triangle are equal to two angles of another, the triangles are similar.
If a line is drawn parallel to one side of a triangle to intersect the other two sides, it divides the sides proportionally.
Thales’ Theorem is another name for the Basic Proportionality Theorem (BPT).
If a line divides any two sides of a triangle in the same ratio, the line must be parallel to the third side.
In a right-angled triangle: \(a^2 + b^2 = c^2\), where \(c\) is the hypotenuse.
If for a triangle \(a^2 + b^2 = c^2\), the triangle is right-angled.
The ratio of areas of two similar triangles is equal to the ratio of the squares of their corresponding sides.
The sides and angles that occupy the same relative position in congruent or similar triangles.
By showing the ratio of all three pairs of corresponding sides is equal.
If the hypotenuse and one side of a right-angled triangle are equal to the hypotenuse and one side of another right-angled triangle, the triangles are congruent.
