Question

You have been asked by the police to find one of the three locations the Acute Perps gang is likely to hit in the coming weeks. Because the gang sticks to a triangular pattern, the locations could be a translation, reflection, or rotation of the original triangle. Choose one of the following scenarios to help locate the gang: Obtuse Scalene Triangle Translation to prove SSS Congruence Isosceles Right Triangle Reflection to prove ASA Congruence Equilateral Equiangular Triangle Rotation to prove SAS Congruence After you have selected the one transformation you will be completing, go to step 2 for detailed directions.

Polygon with three sides, three angles, and three vertices. Based on the properties of each side, the types of triangles are scalene (triangle with three three different lengths and three different angles), isosceles (angle with two equal sides and two equal angles), and equilateral (three equal sides and three angles of 60°). The types of angles are acute (less than 90°); obtuse (greater than 90°); and right (90°).
