A History of Success
Twenty-two years of research and development by the University of Chicago School Mathematics Project (UCSMP) has produced a Pre-K12 curriculum that consists of two vertically articulated programs: (1) the nations leading standards-based Pre-K6 mathematics program, Everyday Mathematics, (2) UCSMP Grades 612. The entire UCSMP Pre K12 curriculum emphasizes problem solving, everyday applications, the use of technology, and reading in mathematics, while developing and maintaining basic skills.
by UCSMP have produced eld-tested curricula. Curriculum experts and classroom teachers wrote the materials over several years. The texts undergo rigorous eld trials at all stages of development to ensure classroom efcacy.

GOAL
Solve an equation of the form ax + b = c regardless of the values of a, b, and c.
3-4
Solving ax + b = c
BIG IDEA An equation of the form ax + b = c can be solved in two major steps.
SPUR Objectives
A Solve and check linear equations of the form ax + b = c. D Use linear equations and inequalities of the form ax + b = c or ax + b < c to solve real-world problems.
In 1637, the French philosopher and mathematician Ren Descartes started the practice of identifying known quantities by the letters a, b, and c from the beginning of the alphabet and unknown quantities by the letters x, y, and z from the end of the alphabet. Following the practice of Descartes, when we write solving ax + b = c we mean that a, b, and c are known numbers and x is unknown. For example, 3 when a = __, b = 53, and c = 7, we obtain the equation 2 3 __x + 53 = 7. 2 In general, any equation of the form ax + b = c, with a not equal to zero, can be solved in two steps. First add the opposite of b to both sides. Then multiply both sides by the reciprocal of a.

Warm-Up
Equations are often complicated, but they can be simplied into ones that you can solve.
The notes with each lesson in the Teachers Edition provide a variety of teaching ideas, organized around the following four-step instructional plan:
Present the following problem. Bill wants to determine the weight of one of 7 identical packages. He has a balance with a 10-kilogram weight and many 500-gram weights. When he puts 5 of the packages on the scale and three 500-gram weights, it balances the 10-kilogram weight. What does each package weigh? 1.7 kg, or 1,700 g

there are only two major steps in solving an equation of the form ax
The power of algebra is in its generality. The same algorithm that solves an equation of the form ax + b = c also solves variations such as b + ax = c, c = ax + b, or similar situations with subtraction or involving fractions or decimals. Do not expect immediate mastery. Although the algorithm does not change, the equations and their solutions look different enough to present difculties for many students.

Covering the Ideas questions demonstrate student knowledge of the overall concepts of the lesson. Applying the Mathematics questions go beyond lesson examples, with an emphasis on real-world problem solving. Review questions relate either to previous lessons in the course or to content from earlier courses. Exploration questions ask students to explore ideas.
Implementation of UCSMP
The University of Chicago School Mathematics Project provides an uninterrupted curriculum from the primary grades through Grade 12. There is a smooth development and tight alignment of content across the grades. UCSMP is a exible program which allows schools to offer appropriate mathematics to students, regardless of their grade level. Students can enter UCSMP at any grade but are advantaged by having had the previous UCSMP courses. The table below shows how Everyday Mathematics (EM) and the Third Edition texts of UCSMP Grades 612 can be used together beginning at Grade 5.

Each lesson in this chapter is designed to be covered in 1 day. At the end of the chapter, you should plan to spend 1 day to review the Self-Test, 1 to 2 days for the Chapter Review, and 1 day for a test. You may wish to spend a day on projects, and possibly a day is needed for quizzes. You may want to linger on one or two lessons a little longer. This chapter should therefore take 10 to 12 days. We strongly advise you not to spend more than 13 days on this chapter. Despite the urge you might have to take more time to develop proof competence, the idea of proofs continues to be developed in Chapters 6 and 7.

Teachers duplicate worksheets for students, and businesses photocopy photographs and diagrams. Tool-and-die makers create molds (the dies) for cutting and forging metal so that manufacturers can make identical parts. Which of the figures below do you think are congruent to Figure A?
Overview
The overview emphasizes some of the places in which congruent figures are desired: copied documents manufactured products designs packing situations
Because the idea of congruence has been used for thousands of years to deduce the properties of figures, we tend to think that congruence is obvious. Yet, as evidenced by the difficulty students initially have with proofs, the step from seeing congruence in figures to using congruence to deduce the properties of figures is not obvious. Point out that the major idea in this chapter is to determine how much information we can glean from bits of information given in a particular situation. In this chapter, these bits of information will often involve knowing that some figures are congruent.

Chapter 5 Overview
Chapters 5 7 combine two approaches to the study of polygons. These approaches use ideas from Chapter 2 (good denitions), Chapter 3 (angles formed by parallel lines), and Chapter 4 (reections and congruence). In Chapters 5 and 7, students will write proofs. In Chapter 6, those ideas are applied to deduce and help students learn the properties of polygons that possess reection symmetry. A global property of a gureits symmetryis used to deduce some of its specic properties. In Chapter 7, the more traditional approach of triangle congruence is employed to deduce properties of gures that do not possess symmetry. In that approach, congruent sides and angles are used to deduce other specic properties. Combined, the two approaches give students the ability to understand and deduce the properties of polygons. This chapter introduces the fundamental ideas of proof that are needed for both approaches and shows their power by

seem congruent. If you have not already discussed a definition of congruence, point out that the definition of congruence in Lesson 5-1 allows figures to have different orientations and still be congruent, as in Figures a and b. Lesson 5-1 also introduces the phrase oppositely congruent. Figure c is a rotation image of Figure b, so they are directly congruent. Figure e is a rotation image of Figure a, so they are directly congruent. Figures d and f are not congruent to the others. Notice that the partial tessellation with Figure a as a fundamental region involves congruent figures of different orientations. The 3-dimensional figures pictured on page 251 are the five regular polyhedra. These polyhedra have congruent regular polygons as their faces. The congruent faces and their symmetry planes enable us to use any of these polyhedra as dice, though obviously the cube is much more commonly used than are the others.
In this chapter, you will take a close look at some of the properties of congruent figures. You will see how congruent figures are used and use them yourself to deduce properties of angles and segments within particular figures. These properties and results have been key ideas for as long as people have studied geometry, so in this chapter you will be introduced to some of the history of the development of geometry.
Tiled floors and bricked driveways can form interesting patterns. The congruent figures below fit together nicely to form an attractive pattern. This is possible because they have corresponding parts that are congruent.
Chapter 5 Projects
At the end of each chapter, you will find projects related to the chapter. At this time you might want to have students look over the projects on pages 296 and 297. You might want to have students tentatively select a project on which to work. Then, as students read and progress through the chapter, they can finalize their project choices. Sometimes students might work alone. At other times, you might let them collaborate with classmates for a presentation and discussion. We recommend that you allow for diversity and encourage students to use their imaginations when presenting their projects. As students work on projects throughout the year, they should see many uses of mathematics in the real world.
People who manufacture dice for games have to make sure the faces of the die are congruent. Congruence helps assure that each face has an identical chance of facing up when the die is randomly tossed.

deducing some very important theorems. Lessons 5-1 and 5-2 introduce the basic properties of congruence, including its denition, the theorem that corresponding parts of congruent gures are congruent, and theorems that reveal relationships between congruence and equality. Lesson 5-3 introduces one-step congruence proofs and general ideas about proofs. Lesson 5-4 shows the power of proofs with the Transitive Property of Equality and deduces the theorems about parallel lines and alternate
interior angles. In Lesson 5-5, reection properties help prove the Perpendicular Bisector Theorem and other geometric conclusions. Lesson 5-6 introduces auxiliary gures and uniqueness. Lesson 5-7 develops the sum of the measures of the angles of any triangle, which then deduces a formula for the sum of the measures of the interior angles of any convex polygon. Throughout this chapter, students are asked to draw with a straightedge, a compass, a protractor, and a DGS.

It is possible to prove that certain gures are unique. For example, in Lesson 5-5, the circle through three noncollinear points A, B, and C is unique because C (1) the perpendicular bisector of any segment contains all points equidistant from the endpoints of the segment, (2) ___ the ___ two perpendicular bisectors of AB and BC intersect at a unique point, and (3) there is a unique circle with a particular center and radius. So we can assert the following theorem.

Background
The importance of the idea of auxiliary gures is demonstrated by how little could be proved without them. Almost any nonobvious theorem requires at least one auxiliary line. We used auxiliary gures in the proofs of the Two-Reection Theorems in Lessons 4-4 and 4-5. The idea of auxiliary gures is not new; only their justication is new. How many parallels are there? Because perpendiculars are unique, does the same apply to parallels? One of the greatest discoveries in mathematics is that one can assume nonuniqueness of parallels and still have consistent geometry. The Russian mathematician Nikolai Ivanovich Lobachevski and the Hungarian mathematician Jnos Bolyai independently discovered this in the late 1820s. Lobachevski and Bolyai wanted to prove Euclids fth postulate from the other four. They began with indirect reasoning, assuming a negation of Playfairs Postulate. Instead of arriving at a contradiction, they were able to deduce many theorems.

It is not possible to do this in every triangle. Draw a ABC. The perpendicular bisector of AC is uniquely determined by AC. However, does not have to pass through the DE vertex of B, as the figure shows.
Other mathematicians had followed the same approach but thought that they had not reasoned long enough to get a contradiction. The brilliance of Lobachevski and Bolyai was to realize that there was no such contradiction to be found. Other mathematicians later veried that Lobachevski and Bolyai were correct by describing planes, an undened term, that did not satisfy Playfairs Parallel Postulate.
Todays geometry texts tend to be idiosyncratic; two texts seldom have exactly the same set of postulates. The set in this book differs from the set used in others. We substitute the Corresponding Angle Postulate for Euclids Parallel Postulate and Playfairs Parallel Postulate (see page 284). This does not change the set of possible propositions (postulates, theorems, and denitions) that are in the geometry. We are still in Euclidean geometry.

Notes on the Lesson
Playfairs Parallel Posulate The following statements are logically equivalent; that is, from any statement, all the others can be deduced. If two lines are cut by a transversal, and the interior angles on the same side of the transversal have a total measure of less than 180, then the lines will intersect on that side of the transversal. (Euclids Parallel Postulate) Through a point not on a line, there is exactly one line parallel to the given line.

Lesson 5-6
By the nineteenth century, other mathematicians had substituted different statements for Playfairs Parallel Postulate. When they assumed there are no parallels to a line through a point not on it, they were able to develop a spherical geometry that could apply to the surface of the Earth. When they assumed there is more than one parallel to a line through a point not on it, they developed types of geometries for other surfaces. The most notable of these is called hyperbolic geometry. All of these geometries are called non-Euclidean geometries. Non-Euclidean geometries are important in physics in the theory of relativity. These mathematicians greatly inuenced all later mathematics with their work. For the rst time, postulates were viewed as statements assumed true instead of statements denitely true. With this point of view, mathematicians experimented with a variety of algebras and types of geometries formed by modifying or changing postulates. A useful algebra, with some postulates different from those you have studied, is applied in logic and in the operation of computers.

(2) The applicability of a mathematical system depends on the postulates chosen. (3) Changing the postulates may change the set of possible theorems that can be proved and the applicability of the theorems. (4) Changing the postulates usually does change which theorems are easier to prove than others.
Triangle-Sum Theorem
The sum of the measures of the angles of any triangle is 180.
Given ABC Prove mA + mB + mC = 180 Proof Draw auxiliary line BD with BD AC . BD exists because of the Uniqueness of___ Parallels Theorem. Pick a point E on BD such that B is on ED. Label angles 1, 2, and 3 as shown. Notice that A and 1 are alternate interior angles, as are C and 3. Because BD AC , these alternate interior angles must be congruent by the Parallel Lines Theorem. Thus, mA = m1 and mC = m3. We also know mEBD = 180 because it is a straight angle. By the Angle Addition Property, m1 + m2 + m3 = mEBD. Now, by substitution, mA + mB + mC = 180. This argument proves the theorem you have used for years.

Chapter 5
Because the sum of the measures of the angles of a triangle is xed at 180, a triangle cannot have more than one angle that is right or obtuse. For this reason we can classify triangles by their largest angle. An obtuse triangle is a triangle with an obtuse angle. A right triangle is a triangle with a right angle. An acute triangle is a triangle with all three angles acute.

Students may find it interesting to check their ideas about angle measures on a sphere by consulting mathematics, geography, and cartography books. Spherical trigonometry was once a fairly common topic in textbooks, though it now receives little attention.
A special kind of non-Euclidean geometry is called spherical geometry. In spherical geometry, the points are all on a sphere. To investigate this geometry you will need a sphere that you can write on, a washable marker, 3 or more pieces of string, and a protractor. a. Choose two points on the sphere. Stretch a piece of string from one point to the other so that the string is as short as possible. This shortest path between two points can be thought of as a line segment in spherical geometry. A line through two points in spherical geometry is the path on the sphere that contains the shortest path from one point to another. If a line in spherical geometry is drawn, what is the result? b. Create three points on the sphere. Create a triangle and measure its angles to the best of your ability. Do this for several different triangles. Make a conjecture about the sum of the measures of a triangle in spherical geometry.

Proofs as Games
Consider the following game: you are given a certain number (say 15). At each step, you are allowed to add 2 to that number, or to divide it by 3 if it is divisible by 3 (so, if you started at 15, in the second step you could get to 17 or to 5). You are also given a target number (say 10). Your goal is to determine if you can start at the starting number and end at the target number. a. Is it possible to get from 15 to 9? How many steps would you have to use? Explain your steps. b. Is it possible to get from 15 to 2? Explain. c. Invent similar rules for a game, and try to get from a starting number to a target number that you chose.

In this chapter, you encountered proofs that were a few steps long. In mathematics, proofs can get to be extremely long. Use the Internet to nd out about a theorem with one of the longest proofs ever. How long was this proof? How long did it take to come up with? How many different people worked on it? Who were these people, and what were their different roles in the proof?
A star polygon S can be formed from any convex n-gon provided n is odd. Draw diagonals from each vertex of P to the two vertices of P that are opposite it. You will wind up with n diagonals that form S. Each pair of consecutive diagonals form one of the n angles of S. a. Experiment with a DGS to nd the sum of the measures of the angles of a star polygon of 5 sides. b. Experiment with a DGS to nd the sum of the measures of the angles of a star polygon of 7 sides. c.

Thus, the Summary can be used to help students relate and unify the concepts presented in the chapter. Vocabulary words and symbols are listed by lesson to provide a checklist of concepts that students must know. Emphasize to students that they should read the vocabulary list carefully before starting the Self-Test on page 300.

Theorems and Properties covered in the chapter are listed below the Summary with page references included to lead students back to the location in the chapter where the theorem or property is stated.
Isometries preserve Angle measure, Betweenness, Collinearity, and Distance (A-B-C-D). As a result, any gure is the same size and shape as its image under an isometry. From this, we dene congruent figures as any two gures such that there is an isometry that maps one onto the other. Congruence has some properties that are like those of equality: the reexive, symmetric, and transitive properties. Three other basic properties of congruence are the Segment Congruence Theorem, the Angle Congruence Theorem, and the CPCF Theorem. In a proof of a conditional statement p q, p is the given, q is the prove, there is a drawing (when necessary), and a proof to show how q follows from p. Though mathematicians almost always write proofs in paragraphs, in elementary geometry, proofs are commonly written either in two columns or in paragraphs. Most of the proofs in this chapter involve congruence. Common justications in these proofs are denitions that involve segments of equal length or angles of equal measure, theorems about parallel lines, the congruence theorems, the Transitive Property of Congruence, and properties of reections. The properties of reections help to prove that any point on the perpendicular bisector of a segment is equidistant from the endpoints of the segment. This explains why the construction of a circle through three noncollinear points works.

From the Corresponding Angles Postulate we proved that two lines cut by a transversal are parallel if and only if a pair of alternate interior angles are congruent, a pair of alternate exterior angles are congruent, or a pair of same-side interior angles are supplementary. From this we also can deduce that there is exactly one line parallel to a given line through a point not on the line. This Uniqueness of Parallels Theorem helps deduce the TriangleSum Theorem, which is used to prove the Exterior Angle Theorem for Triangles, the Quadrilateral-Sum Theorem, and the formula S = (n - 2)180 for the sum, S, of the measures of the interior angles of any convex n-gon. This is then used to deduce the fact that the sum of the measures of one set of exterior angles is 360.
