Back

AB ≅ XY

Front

What does the SAS postulate state?

Back

If two sides and the included angle of one triangle are congruent to two sides and the included angle of another triangle, then the triangles are congruent.

Front

What does the ASA postulate state?

Back

If two angles and the included side of one triangle are congruent to two angles and the included side of another triangle, then the triangles are congruent.

Front

What is the Reflexive Property?

Back

A quantity is equal to itself; for example, AB = AB.

Front

What is the AAS postulate?

Back

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

Front

What is the definition of congruent triangles?

Back

Triangles that have the same size and shape; their corresponding sides and angles are equal.
