CORRECTIONS SSS & SAS Triangle Congruency

Front

What does congruent mean?

Back

Corresponding sides and angles are congruent.

Front

Congruent by which criteria?

Back

SAS (Side-Angle-Side) is one of the criteria for triangle congruence.

Front

Which is a correct congruence statement?

Back

C (specific congruence statement to be defined in context).

Front

Which congruence is needed to prove ΔXYZ ≅ ΔJKL by SAS?

Back

ZY ≅ LK.

Front

Are the triangles congruent? If yes, why?

Back

Yes, by SSS (Side-Side-Side) congruence.

Front

What is the SSS Congruence Postulate?

Back

If three sides of one triangle are equal to three sides of another triangle, then the triangles are congruent.

Front

What is the SAS Congruence Postulate?

Back

If two sides and the included angle of one triangle are equal to two sides and the included angle of another triangle, then the triangles are congruent.

Front

What does ASA stand for in triangle congruence?

Back

Angle-Side-Angle; if two angles and the included side of one triangle are equal to two angles and the included side of another triangle, then the triangles are congruent.

Front

What is the definition of corresponding parts in congruent triangles?

Back

Corresponding parts are angles and sides that are in the same relative position in two congruent triangles.

Front

How can you prove triangles are congruent using the AAS criterion?

Back

If two angles and a non-included side of one triangle are equal to two angles and the corresponding non-included side of another triangle, then the triangles are congruent.
