Congruent Triangles Practice

Front

What is the correct congruence statement for ΔLEU?

Back

ΔELG

Front

What postulate is used to prove triangles congruent when two sides and the included angle are known?

Back

SAS (Side-Angle-Side)

Front

What does the SSS postulate stand for?

Back

SSS (Side-Side-Side) - If three sides of one triangle are equal to three sides of another triangle, the triangles are congruent.

Front

Which congruence postulate is not valid for proving triangle congruence?

Back

SSA (Side-Side-Angle) is not a valid postulate.

Front

What does ASA stand for in triangle congruence?

Back

ASA (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, the triangles are congruent.

Front

If two triangles have two sides and the included angle equal, what can be concluded?

Back

The triangles are congruent by the SAS postulate.

Front

What is the definition of congruent triangles?

Back

Triangles that are identical in shape and size, meaning all corresponding sides and angles are equal.

Front

How can you prove that two triangles are congruent using AAS?

Back

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

Front

What is the significance of the congruence symbol (≅)?

Back

It indicates that two geometric figures are congruent.

Front

What is an example of a congruence statement?
