The video tutorial covers lesson 45 on proving triangles congruent using the ASA and AAS postulates. It begins with an introduction to the concepts of ASA and AAS, explaining how two triangles can be proven congruent if certain conditions are met. The ASA postulate is detailed with examples, showing how two angles and the included side can establish congruence. The video then transitions to the AAS theorem, explaining how two angles and a non-included side can also prove congruence. Each section includes practical examples and proofs to illustrate the concepts, helping students understand the application of these geometric principles.

What does the ASA postulate state?

• If three sides of one triangle are congruent to three sides of another triangle, then the triangles are congruent.

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

• 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.

• 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.

What does the AAS postulate state?

• 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.

• 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.

• If three sides of one triangle are congruent to three sides of another triangle, then the triangles are congruent.

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