Geometry
Std 8: Deduce relationships between two triangles, including proving congruence or similarity of the triangles from given information, using the relationships to solve problems and to establish other relationships.  

Lesson Plans

Triangle Congruence Problems
Here are examples of several triangle proofs with an online quiz.

Congruent Right Triangles
Here are examples of several right triangle proofs with an online quiz.

Triangle Congruence Theorems
These are GSP applets that demonstrate all the triangle congruence theorems and the triangle inequality theorem.
