Proving Triangles Congruent Lesson 4-3 (SSS, SAS, ASA, AAS, HL) Lesson 4-3: SSS, SAS, ASA
A D F B C E Postulates If the sides of one triangle are congruent to the sides of a second triangle, then the triangles are congruent. SSS Included Angle: In a triangle, the angle formed by two sides is the included angle for the two sides. Included Side: The side of a triangle that forms a side of two given angles. Lesson 4-3: SSS, SAS, ASA
Included Angles & Sides Included Angle: * * * Included Side: Lesson 4-3: SSS, SAS, ASA
A A D D B C B C F F E E Postulates If two angles and the included side of one triangle are congruent to the two angles and the included side of another triangle, then the triangles are congruent. ASA If two sides and the included angle of one triangle are congruent to the two sides and the included angle of another triangle, then the triangles are congruent. SAS Lesson 4-3: SSS, SAS, ASA
