If two sides and a non-included angle of one triangle are equal to two sides and a non-included angle of another triangle, what can be concluded?

Back

The triangles are not necessarily congruent (not a valid theorem).

What is the relationship between congruent triangles?

Back

Congruent triangles have the same size and shape, meaning all corresponding sides and angles are equal.
