Is it possible to have two noncongruent triangles that have two pairs of congruent angle and one pair of congruent sides?

not possible, they only have 3 sides so they have to be congruent by ASA or AAS

If two triangles have a congruent angle and two congruent sides then are the triangles guaranteed to be congruent?
Only if the congruent angle is the angle between the two congruent sides (SAS postulate).
Can you show that two triangles are congruent by angle-angle-angle?
No, because they need not be congruent.
What does angle angle side mean?
Angle Angle Side is a method one can use to prove that two triangles are congruent. Basically, if any two pairs of angles and the side between these angles are congruent, then the triangles are congruent as well.
Are two scalene triangles with congruent angles similar?
When all of their corresponding angles are congruent (in any triangle, in fact) then the triangles are similar. Similarity postulate AAA. (angle-angle-angle)
What are the four congruence theorem for right triangle?
four types aressssasrhsasa1.HyL Theorem (Hypotenuse-Leg) - if the hypotenuse and leg of one triangle is congruent to another triangle's hypotenuse and leg, then the triangles are congruent.2.HyA (Hypotenuse-Angle) - if the hypotenuse and angle of one triangle is congruent to another triangle's hypotenuse and angle, then the triangles are congruent.3.LL (Leg-Leg) if the 2 legs of one triangle is congruent to another triangle's 2 legs, then the triangles are congruent.4.LA (Leg-Angle) if the angle and leg of one triangle is congruent to another triangle's angle and leg, then the triangles are congruent.
If two triangles have a congruent angle and two congruent sides then are the triangles guaranteed to be congruent?
Only if the congruent angle is the angle between the two congruent sides (SAS postulate).
Can you show that two triangles are congruent by angle-angle-angle?
No, because they need not be congruent.
Can two scalene triangles not be congruent but have 5 congruent parts?
No. Any three consecutive congruent parts (angle-side-angle or side-angle-side) make any two triangles completely congruent.
In two triangles have a congruent angle and two congruent angle and two congruent sides then the triangles are guaranteed to be congruent?
Yes, if two triangles have two congruent angles and two congruent sides then the triangles are guaranteed to be congruent. They only need two angles and one side congruent or two sides and one angle in order to be congruent.
If any two sides and any angle are congruent in two triangles then the triangles must be congruent?
False
Why is there not an angle angle angle theroem?
Because angle angle angle does not necessarily give rise to congruent triangles - they can be similar, but non-congruent.
What does angle angle side mean?
Angle Angle Side is a method one can use to prove that two triangles are congruent. Basically, if any two pairs of angles and the side between these angles are congruent, then the triangles are congruent as well.
What are right triangle congruence theorem?
1.HyL Theorem (Hypotenuse-Leg) - if the hypotenuse and leg of one triangle is congruent to another triangle's hypotenuse and leg, then the triangles are congruent. 2.HyA (Hypotenuse-Angle) - if the hypotenuse and angle of one triangle is congruent to another triangle's hypotenuse and angle, then the triangles are congruent. 3.LL (Leg-Leg) if the 2 legs of one triangle is congruent to another triangle's 2 legs, then the triangles are congruent. 4.LA (Leg-Angle) if the angle and leg of one triangle is congruent to another triangle's angle and leg, then the triangles are congruent.
Are two scalene triangles with congruent angles similar?
When all of their corresponding angles are congruent (in any triangle, in fact) then the triangles are similar. Similarity postulate AAA. (angle-angle-angle)
What are three ways that you can prove that triangles are congruent?
If triangles have the corresponding sides congruent then they are congruent. SSS If two triangles have two sides and an included angle congruent then they are congruent. SAS If two triangles have two angles and an included side congruent then they are congruent. ASA SSA doesn't work.
What else must you know to prove the triangles congruent by SAS?
Nothing. If a side ,an angle, and a side are the same the triangles are congruent.
The LAtheorem says that two right triangles will be congruent if they have a congruent and a congruent leg?
The leg-angle congruence theorem says if one leg and an acute angle of one right triangle are congruent to one leg and an acute angle of another right triangle, then the two right triangles are congruent.
