What does the Vertical Angles Theorem state?

Back

The Vertical Angles Theorem states that if two angles are vertical angles, then they are congruent (i.e., they have the same measure).

What does SAS stand for in triangle congruence?

Back

SAS stands for Side-Angle-Side, which is a criterion for triangle congruence stating that if two sides and the included angle of one triangle are congruent to two sides and the included angle of another triangle, then the triangles are congruent.

What does SSS stand for in triangle congruence?

Back

SSS stands for Side-Side-Side, which is a criterion for triangle congruence stating that if all three sides of one triangle are congruent to all three sides of another triangle, then the triangles are congruent.
