Front

What does ASA stand for in triangle congruence?

Back

ASA stands for Angle-Side-Angle, a rule used to determine if two triangles are congruent by comparing two angles and the included side.

Front

What does AAS stand for in triangle congruence?

Back

AAS stands for Angle-Angle-Side, a rule used to determine if two triangles are congruent by comparing two angles and a non-included side.

Front

What is the SSA condition in triangle congruence?

Back

SSA stands for Side-Side-Angle, which does not guarantee triangle congruence and can lead to ambiguous cases.

Front

What is the definition of congruent triangles?

Back

Congruent triangles are triangles that are identical in shape and size, meaning their corresponding sides and angles are equal.

Front

How do you find the smallest angle in a triangle?

Back

The smallest angle in a triangle is opposite the shortest side.

Front

If two angles of a triangle are known, how can you find the third angle?

Back

The third angle can be found using the formula: Third Angle = 180° - (Angle 1 + Angle 2).

Front

What is the sum of the angles in any triangle?

Back

The sum of the angles in any triangle is always 180°.

Front

If one angle of a triangle is 95°, what is the maximum possible value for the other two angles?

Back

The maximum possible value for the other two angles combined is 85°.

Front

Solve for x: 2x + 10 = 30.

Back

x = 10.

Front

What is the definition of an angle?

Back

An angle is formed by two rays with a common endpoint, called the vertex.
