Congruent Triangles
Congruent Triangles
The triangles will have the same shape and size, but one may be a mirror image of the other.
There are three main ways to see if the triangle is congruent.
SSS: Side Side Side
-
Triangles are congruent if all three sides in one triangle are congruent to the corresponding sides in the other.
SAS: Side Angle Side
-
Triangles are congruent if any pair of corresponding sides and their included angles are equal in both triangles.
ASA: Angle Side Angle
-
Triangles are congruent if any two angles and their included side are equal in both triangles.
SSS- Side Side Side
