Front

Which triangle congruence theorem can be used to prove the triangles are congruent?

Back

HL

Front

What does AAS stand for in triangle congruence?

Back

Angle-Angle-Side

Front

What is the SSS postulate?

Back

Side-Side-Side; if three sides of one triangle are equal to three sides of another triangle, the triangles are congruent.

Front

What is the ASA postulate?

Back

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

What does HL stand for in triangle congruence?

Back

Hypotenuse-Leg; used for proving the congruence of right triangles.

Front

What is the SSA condition?

Back

Side-Side-Angle; this condition does not guarantee triangle congruence.
