3rd: LT 8.4 SSS and SAS

Front

What does SSS stand for in triangle congruence?

Back

SSS stands for Side-Side-Side, a theorem stating that if three sides of one triangle are equal to three sides of another triangle, the triangles are congruent.

Front

What does SAS stand for in triangle congruence?

Back

SAS stands for Side-Angle-Side, a theorem stating that if two sides and the included angle of one triangle are equal to two sides and the included angle of another triangle, the triangles are congruent.

Front

What is the included angle in a triangle?

Back

The included angle is the angle formed between two sides of a triangle.

Front

Which triangle congruence theorem is used when two sides and the included angle are known?

Back

The SAS (Side-Angle-Side) theorem is used.

Front

Which triangle congruence theorem is used when all three sides are known?

Back

The SSS (Side-Side-Side) theorem is used.

Front

If two triangles have two angles and a non-included side equal, which theorem applies?

Back

The AAS (Angle-Angle-Side) theorem applies.

Front

What is the relationship between angles A, B, and C in triangle ABC?

Back

Angles A, B, and C are the interior angles of triangle ABC, and their sum is always 180 degrees.

Front

How do you identify the included side between two angles?

Back

The included side is the side that connects the two angles.

Front

What is the significance of the HL theorem in triangle congruence?

Back

The HL (Hypotenuse-Leg) theorem states that if the hypotenuse and one leg of a right triangle are equal to the hypotenuse and one leg of another right triangle, the triangles are congruent.

Front

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

Back

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