SECTION 46. HYPERBOLIC GEOMETRY 269Figure 46.5: If the summits of two Saccheri quadrilaterals with equal defectare congruent, then the two quadrilaterals are congruent.Chose points F ∈ −→ DA and G ∈−→ CB such that DF = D ′ A ′ = CG.By SAS, △F DC ∼ = △A ′ D ′ C ′ . Henceand therefore∠F CD = ∠A ′ C ′ D ′=⇒ ∠GCF = ∠C − ∠F CDBy SAS, △GCF ∼ = △B ′ C ′ A ′ , Hence= ∠C ′ − ∠A ′ C ′ D ′= ∠B ′ C ′ A ′∠G = ∠B ′ = 90Similarly,∠F = ∠A = 90Hence □F GCD ∼ = □A ′ B ′ C ′ D ′ .Revised: 18 Nov 2012 « CC BY-NC-ND 3.0.
