Front

What is the smallest angle in a triangle with angles ∠A, ∠B, ∠C?

Back

∠B

Front

What postulate can be used to prove triangles congruent if two angles and the included side are known?

Back

AAS (Angle-Angle-Side)

Front

What postulate can be used to prove triangles congruent if two sides and the included angle are known?

Back

SAS (Side-Angle-Side)

Front

What theorem can be used to determine if two right triangles are congruent if the hypotenuse and one leg are known?

Back

HL (Hypotenuse-Leg)

Front

What postulate can be used to prove triangles congruent if all three sides are known?

Back

SSS (Side-Side-Side)

Front

If two triangles have two angles and a non-included side equal, are they congruent?

Back

Yes, by AAS.

Front

If two triangles have two sides and the included angle equal, are they congruent?

Back

Yes, by SAS.

Front

If two triangles have all three sides equal, are they congruent?

Back

Yes, by SSS.

Front

What is the definition of congruent triangles?

Back

Triangles that are identical in shape and size.

Front

What is the Angle-Side-Angle (ASA) postulate?

Back

If two angles and the included side of one triangle are equal to two angles and the included side of another triangle, the triangles are congruent.
