Congruent Triangles Practice

Front

What is the correct congruence statement for ΔLEU?

Back

ΔELG

Front

What postulate is used to prove triangles congruent when two sides and the included angle are known?

Back

SAS (Side-Angle-Side)

Front

What does the SSS postulate stand for?

Back

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

Front

What is the ASA postulate?

Back

ASA (Angle-Side-Angle) states that if two angles and the included side of one triangle are equal to two angles and the included side of another triangle, then the triangles are congruent.

Front

What is the AAS postulate?

Back

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

Front

Which congruence postulate is not valid for proving triangle congruence?

Back

SSA (Side-Side-Angle) is not a valid postulate for proving triangle congruence.

Front

If ΔEHG≅ΔKFC, what can be concluded about the sides EH and FK?

Back

EH≅FK

Front

If two triangles are congruent, what can be said about their corresponding angles?

Back

Their corresponding angles are equal.

Front

What is the definition of congruent triangles?

Back

Congruent triangles are triangles that are identical in shape and size, meaning all corresponding sides and angles are equal.

Front

How can you prove that two triangles are congruent using the SSS postulate?

Back

By showing that all three sides of one triangle are equal to all three sides of another triangle.
