FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What does the HL theorem stand for in triangle congruence?

Back

HL stands for Hypotenuse-Leg theorem, which states that if the hypotenuse and one leg of a right triangle are equal to the hypotenuse and one leg of another right triangle, then the two triangles are congruent.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What does the SSS theorem state in triangle congruence?

Back

SSS stands for Side-Side-Side theorem, which states that if three sides of one triangle are equal to three sides of another triangle, then the two triangles are congruent.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What does the ASA theorem stand for in triangle congruence?

Back

ASA stands for Angle-Side-Angle theorem, which states that if two angles and the side between them in one triangle are equal to two angles and the side between them in another triangle, then the two triangles are congruent.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is the definition of triangle congruence?

Back

Triangle congruence means that two triangles are identical in shape and size, meaning their corresponding sides and angles are equal.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is the importance of triangle congruence theorems in geometry?

Back

Triangle congruence theorems are important because they provide criteria to determine whether two triangles are congruent, which is fundamental in solving various geometric problems.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

Can two triangles be congruent if only one side is equal?

Back

No, two triangles cannot be congruent if only one side is equal; at least two sides and the included angle or three sides must be equal.

7.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is the difference between ASA and AAS in triangle congruence?

Back

ASA (Angle-Side-Angle) requires two angles and the included side to be equal, while AAS (Angle-Angle-Side) requires two angles and a non-included side to be equal.
