What does it mean for two triangles to be congruent?

Back

Two triangles are congruent if they have the same size and shape, which can be proven using congruence criteria such as SSS, SAS, ASA, AAS, or HL.

What is the ASA congruency theorem?

Back

The ASA (Angle-Side-Angle) congruency theorem states that 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.
