1.2- Segment Congruency

Today we learned the difference between segment length equality and segment congruency.  Please be sure you understand that equality pertains to numerical measurements and congruency pertains to geometric figures.  Also, be sure to know the correct symbols and notations for each.  Please see the below resources for extra help.  Even though we did not go over it in class today, you are also expected to know how to use a ruler to take measurements of segment lengths.

Tonight's homework is P. 12-13 #1,8,10,16,19,24,26,33.  Remember to show work when applicable and be aware that homework is graded mainly on effort.  Copying or cheating benefits you in no way.  Understanding the concepts are infinitely more important than getting a good homework grade.  If for whatever reason you are unable to complete your homework on a given night, please just do it for homework the next night- do not copy someone's homework.  Help us to maintain the academic integrity of this course.
