Part B—Multiple choice. Each question is worth 2 points. In questions 6-10 determine whether it is possible to prove that the triangles are congruent. If it is possible, tell which congruence postulate or theorem you could use. If it is not possible, say so. (2 points each) Note: DO NOT assume an angle is a right angle because it looks like one.

Chapter 4 ORQ Name ______

What kind of Triangle am I?

Answer the following question in the space provided. Given the following points; A(3,2), B(-2, -1), and C(1, -6) determine the following: What kind of triangle does the shape represent (you must support your answer with the appropriate calculations). For full credit you must do the following:

a.  Draw the x, y axis and correctly plot the three points.

b.  Use the distance formula to determine the lengths of the sides.

c.  Determine the slopes of the three sides

d.  Based of the results from b and c, make a conclusion as to the type of triangle ABC is.
