Angle-Side-Angle (ASA) Congruence Postulate B If two angles and the included side of one triangle are congruent to two angles and the included side of a second triangle, then the two triangles are congruent. If Angle Side Angle Then C A S T R
EXAMPLE 1 Use ASA Decide whether the congruence statement is true. Explain your reasoning. SOLUTION (A) (S) (A) So, by ASA,
EXAMPLE 2 Use ASA Decide whether the congruence statement is true. Explain your reasoning.
Angle-Angle-Side (AAS) Congruence Postulate B If two angles and the non-included side of one triangle are congruent to two angles and the non-included side of a second triangle, then the two triangles are congruent. If Angle Angle Side Then C A S T R
EXAMPLE 3 Use AAS Decide whether the congruence statement is true. Explain your reasoning. SOLUTION (A) (A) (S) So, by AAS,
EXAMPLE 4 Use AAS Decide whether the congruence statement is true. Explain your reasoning.
