Elaborations
- • Elaboration listing the properties or criteria necessary to determine if shapes are similar or congruent
- • Elaboration using the conditions for congruence of triangles and similarity of triangles to develop a sorting algorithm; for example, creating a flow chart
- • Elaboration evaluating algorithms for accuracy in classifying and distinguishing between similar and congruent triangles
