8.1 Rigid Transformations and Congruence · Lesson 16: Parallel Lines and the Angles in a TriangleMath · Grade 8 Math · Grade 8Lesson plan

Learning goals: Teacher Facing Create diagrams using 180-degree rotations of triangles to justify (orally and in writing) that the measure of angles in a triangle sum up to 180 degrees. Generalize the Triangle Sum Theorem using rigid transformations or the congruence of alternate interior angles of parallel lines cut by a transversal.
