Module 16: Lesson 4AA Similarity of Triangles Angle-Angle (AA) Triangle Similarity Theorem If 2 angles of one triangle are congruent to 2 angles of another triangle, then the 2 triangles are similar. See example #2 on page 863
Side-Side-Side (SSS) Triangle Similarity Theorem If all 3 sides of one triangle are proportional to all 3 corresponding sides of another triangle, then the 2 triangles are similar. See example #3B on page 865
Side-Angle-Side (SAS) Triangle Similarity Theorem If 2 sides of one triangle are proportional to 2 corresponding sides of another triangle AND the included angles are congruent, then the 2 triangles are similar. See example #3A on page 865
