Applications of Triangle Congruence Conditions


Example 2

In the figure, TI ¯ IY ¯ , DY ¯ YI ¯ , and TD.
Prove that TI ¯ DY ¯ .


Solution
Proof:

In the figure above, ΔTIY and ΔDYI are overlapping triangles. In cases of adjacent and overlapping triangles, look for segments or angles shared by the two triangles that can be used to prove that the two triangles are congruent.
