Five ways of proving congruent triangles
1. SSS (side side side - if 3 side of one triangle are congruent to the 3 side of second triangle, then the triangle are congruent ) 2. SAS (side angle side - if two sides and the included angle of one triangle are congruent to two side and the included angle of a second triangle the the triangle are congruent) 3. ASA (angle side angle - if two angle and the included side of one triangle are congruent to two angles and the included side of a second triangle, then the second triangle is congruent ) 4. AAS ( angle angle side - if two angles and a non-included side of a triangle are congruent to two angles and a non-included sides of a second triangle, then the triangles are congruent) 5. HL (Hypotenuse-Leg - when a leg and a hypotenuse of one triangle are congruent to a leg and a hypotenuse of another right triangle then the triangle are congruent)

Does the relation "is greater than" have a reflexive property (consider real number A)? a symmetric property (consider real numbers A and B)? a transitive property (consider real numbers A, B, and C)?
reflexive # cannot be greater than itself. symmetric # cannot be greater than or less than itself. Only transitive # work because #A can be greater than #B and #B is greater than #C.
Does the relation "is less than" for numbers have a reflexive property (consider one number)? a symmetric property (consider two numbers)? a transitive property (consider three numbers)?
reflexive # cannot be less than itself. symmetric # cannot be less or greater than itself. Only transitive # will work because #A can be less than #B and #B is less than #C.
Does the relation "is complementary to" for angles have a reflexive property (consider one angle)? a symmetric property (consider two angles)? a transitive property (consider three angles)?
reflexive angles cannot be complementary. Symmetric angles can be complementary because two angles can add up to be 90 degrees. Transitive angle cannot be complementary because complementary is the combination of 2 angles not three.
Does the relation "is a brother of" have a reflexive property (consider one male)? a symmetric property (consider two males)? a transitive property (consider three males)?
reflexive brother, one cannot be his own brother. symmetric brother, yes because brother A is a brother to brother B. transitive brothers, Yes because brother A is a brother of Brother B and brother B is a brother of brother C therefore brother A and brother C are also brother.
Does the relation "is perpendicular to" have a reflexive property (consider line L)? a symmetric property (consider lines L and M)? a transitive property (consider lines L, M, and N)?
reflexive line cannot be perpendicular to itself. symmetric line can be perpendicular. transitive line cannot be perpendicular because there's no way to make 3 line perpendicular to each other.
