Side-Side-Side Postulate If the three sides of one triangle are congruent to the three sides of another triangle, then the two triangles are congruent.
Included Angles • You can also show relationships between a pair of corresponding sides and an included angle. Side-Angle-Side Postulate: If two sides and the included angle of one triangle are congruent to two sides and the included angle of another triangle, then the two triangles are congruent.
Using SAS • What other information do you need to prove DEF FGD by SAS? What other information do you need to prove LEB BNL by SAS?
Identifying Congruent Triangles Would you use SSS or SAS to prove the triangles congruent or is there not enough information to prove them congruent?
