Front

What is the AA similarity criterion for triangles?

Back

The AA (Angle-Angle) similarity criterion states that if two angles of one triangle are equal to two angles of another triangle, then the triangles are similar.

Front

What does SSS similarity mean in triangles?

Back

SSS (Side-Side-Side) similarity means that if the corresponding sides of two triangles are in proportion, then the triangles are similar.

Front

Define SAS similarity in triangles.

Back

SAS (Side-Angle-Side) similarity states that if two sides of one triangle are in proportion to two sides of another triangle and the included angles are equal, then the triangles are similar.

Front

What is the definition of congruent triangles?

Back

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

Front

What is the ASA criterion for triangle congruence?

Back

The ASA (Angle-Side-Angle) criterion states that 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 does AAS stand for in triangle congruence?

Back

AAS (Angle-Angle-Side) states that 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.

Front

How do you determine if two triangles are similar?

Back

To determine if two triangles are similar, check for AA, SSS, or SAS similarity criteria.

Front

What is the significance of the similarity statement in triangles?

Back

A similarity statement indicates that two triangles are similar and provides the order of corresponding vertices.

Front

What is the formula to solve for x in a linear equation?

Back

To solve for x, isolate x on one side of the equation using inverse operations.

Front

If triangle UTS is similar to triangle ABC, what can be inferred about their angles?

Back

If triangle UTS is similar to triangle ABC, then the corresponding angles of both triangles are equal.
