Practice with Beginning Congruent Triangle Proofs

             Lesson 1

Problem:   Determine the reason: GL = LK

Given: L is the midpoint of GK, HL = LJ Prove: ∆HLG ≠ ∆JLK

Solution    From the information with the figure

Step 1:

Solution We can see that L is the mid point of GK is Given

Step 2: 

Solution Answer is: L is the mid point of GK

Step 3:                                      

                                           Complete   

                                           Try two practice problems:                                                                                                 

A.	HL ≠ LK
B.	∆GLH ≠ ∆JLK
