Back

AAS (Angle-Angle-Side) postulate can be used.

Front

What postulate can be used to prove two triangles congruent if two sides and the included angle are known?

Back

SAS (Side-Angle-Side) postulate can be used.

Front

Define the SSS postulate in triangle congruence.

Back

SSS (Side-Side-Side) postulate states that if three sides of one triangle are equal to three sides of another triangle, the triangles are congruent.

Front

Define the SAS postulate in triangle congruence.

Back

SAS (Side-Angle-Side) postulate states 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

Define the ASA postulate in triangle congruence.

Back

ASA (Angle-Side-Angle) postulate states that 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

Define the AAS postulate in triangle congruence.

Back

AAS (Angle-Angle-Side) postulate 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, the triangles are congruent.

Front

Define the HL postulate in triangle congruence.

Back

HL (Hypotenuse-Leg) postulate 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.
