Sample answer:
The angles in an equilateral triangle are all equal. The sum of the angles in a triangle is 180º, so each angle equals 180º ÷ 3 = 60º.
b) / false
Sample counterexample:
Bonus
No. The angles in a triangle add to 180º. If two of the angles are right angles, then 90º + 90º = 180º, so the third angle measures zero. This doesn’t make a triangle.
1.The triangles shown are congruent. Identify the equal sides
and equal angles. Then write the congruence statement.

d) Which angle in AEB equals BDC? ______
What is the measure of these angles? ______
Bonus► What is the measure of the third pair of angles in triangles AEB and BCD? Explain.
1. / AB = FEBD = EC
AD = FC
A = F
B = E
D = C
△ABD≅△FEC
2. / a) / 70º
DBC and ABE are vertical angles, so they are equal.
b) / BE = CE
AB = DB
ABE = DBC
SAS
c) / AE, 4.9
d) / EAB
75º
Bonus
Angles in a triangle add to 180º, so
E = 180º − (A
+ EAB)
= 180º − (75º
+ 70º)
= 35º
△AEB≅△DCB,
so E = C,
so C = 35º

3.Lines ℓ and m are parallel. Use what you know about corresponding and supplementary angles to explain
why x + y = 180°.
Bonus► Zara says thatAE is parallel to CD.
Is she correct? Explain.

b) / x = 76º ÷ 2
= 38º
2. / a) / x = 61º
y = 119º
b) / x = 46º
y = 134º
3. / z and x are corresponding angles, so z = x.
y and z are supplementary angles, so y + z = 180º.
y + x = y + z = 180º
Bonus
Yes. ABE = DBC since they are vertical angles.
AB = BD and EB = CB
By the SAS rule,
△ABE ≅△DBC, so
EAB = CDB. These are alternate angles at lines AE and CD. When alternate angles are equal, lines are parallel, so AE∥CD.

Bonus► Use the grid to draw a counterexample to this statement:
If triangles ABC and DEF have AB = DE, BC = EF,
and A = D, they are congruent.
Hint: Sketch the triangles first.
1. / A = X = P = 50ºB = Y = Q = 60º
