Triangle Congruence review (AAS, SSS, ASA, SAS, HL)

Front

What does AAS stand for in triangle congruence?

Back

AAS stands for Angle-Angle-Side, a criterion for triangle congruence.

Front

What does SSS stand for in triangle congruence?

Back

SSS stands for Side-Side-Side, a criterion for triangle congruence.

Front

What does ASA stand for in triangle congruence?

Back

ASA stands for Angle-Side-Angle, a criterion for triangle congruence.

Front

What does SAS stand for in triangle congruence?

Back

SAS stands for Side-Angle-Side, a criterion for triangle congruence.

Front

What does HL stand for in triangle congruence?

Back

HL stands for Hypotenuse-Leg, a criterion for triangle congruence applicable to right triangles.

Front

What is the sum of the interior angles of a triangle?

Back

The sum of the interior angles of a triangle is 180 degrees.

Front

If two triangles have two angles and a non-included side equal, are they congruent?

Back

No, this is SSA (Side-Side-Angle) and does not guarantee congruence.

Front

How can you prove two triangles are congruent using SSS?

Back

If all three sides of one triangle are equal to the three sides of another triangle, they are congruent.

Front

How can you prove two triangles are congruent using ASA?

Back

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

Front

What is the relationship between corresponding sides of congruent triangles?

Back

Corresponding sides of congruent triangles are equal in length.
