Side Angle Side is a method of determining a unique triangle. Any triangle can be congruent to another if the sides are proportional and the angles are the same.
Yes. If you draw the 2 sides with the angle between, there is no alternative to the way you can finish off the triangle. Try it for yourself.

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 postulate states that two triangles are congruent if two sides and an included angle are congruent?
The SAS (Side-Angle-Side) postulate.
What is the angle-angle-side rule?
Side-Angle-Side is a rule used in geometry to prove triangles congruent. The rule states that if two sides and the included angle are congruent to two sides and the included angle of a second triangle, the two triangles are congruent. An included angle is an angle created by two sides of a triangle.
If two triangles are similar are they congruent?
no: if you have two triangles with the same angle measurements, but one has side lengths of 3in, 4in, and 5in and the other has side lengths of 6in, 8in, and 10in, then they are similar. Congruent triangles have the same angle measures AND side lengths.
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).
