What is the Side-Angle-Side (SAS) congruence criterion?

Back

The SAS criterion states that if two sides of one triangle are congruent to two sides of another triangle, and the included angle is also congruent, then the triangles are congruent.

What is the Angle-Side-Angle (ASA) congruence criterion?

Back

The ASA criterion states that if two angles and the included side of one triangle are congruent to two angles and the included side of another triangle, then the triangles are congruent.
