Someone correct me if I am wrong, but I don't believe triangles can be "equal", only congruent. The measurements can be equal, but not the triangle itself.The triangle congruency postulates and theorems are:Side/Side/Side Postulate - If all three sides of a triangle are congruent to the corresponding parts of another triangle, then the triangles are congruent.Angle/Side/Angle Postulate - If two angles and a side included within those angles of a triangle are congruent to the corresponding parts of another triangle, then the triangles are congruent.Side/Angle/Side Postulate - If two sides and an angle included within those sides of a triangle are congruent to the corresponding parts of another triangle, then the triangles are congruent.Angle/Angle/Side Theorem - If two angles and an unincluded side of a triangle are congruent to the corresponding parts of another triangle, then the triangles are congruent.Hypotenuse/Leg Theorem - (right triangles only) If the hypotenuse and a leg of a right triangle are congruent to the corresponding parts of another triangle, then the triangles are congruent.

Two triangles are similar if their corresponding angles are equal and their corresponding sides are in proportion. This can be established using the Angle-Angle (AA) similarity criterion, where if two angles in one triangle are congruent to two angles in another triangle, the triangles are similar. Alternatively, the Side-Angle-Side (SAS) and Side-Side-Side (SSS) criteria can also confirm similarity based on proportional side lengths.
Yes.
The Side-Side-Side (SSS) postulate states that if all three sides of one triangle are congruent to the corresponding sides of another triangle, then the two triangles are congruent. In other words, if the lengths of the three sides of one triangle are equal to the lengths of the corresponding three sides of another triangle, then the two triangles are congruent.

The four congruence theorem for right triangles are:- LL Congruence Theorem --> If the two legs of a right triangle is congruent to the corresponding two legs of another right triangle, then the triangles are congruent.- LA Congruence Theorem --> If a leg and an acute angle of a right triangles is congruent to the corresponding leg and acute angle of another right triangle, then the triangles are congruent.- HA Congruence Theorem --> If the hypotenuse and an acute angle of a right triangle is congruent to the corresponding hypotenuse and acute angle of another triangle, then the triangles are congruent.- HL Congruence Theorem --> If the hypotenuse and a leg of a right triangle is congruent to the corresponding hypotenuse and leg of another right triangle, then the triangles are congruent.
If the angles are the same and the sides are proportional by ratio then they are said to be similar triangles.
Two triangles are similar if their corresponding angles are equal and their corresponding sides are in proportion.

Yes.
If two angles and the included side of one triangle are equal to the corresponding angles and side of another triangle, then the two triangles are congruent.
The postulates that involve congruence are the following :SSS (Side-Side-Side) Congruence Postulate - If three sides of one triangle are congruent to three sides of another triangle, then the triangles are congruent.SAS (Side-Angle-Side) Congruence Postulate - If two sides and the included angle of one triangle are congruent to the corresponding parts of another triangle, the triangles are congruent.ASA (Angle-Side-Angle) Congruence Postulate - If two angles and the included side of one triangle are congruent to the corresponding parts of another triangle, the triangles are congruent.The two other congruence postulates are :AA (Angle-Angle) Similarity Postulate - If two angles of one triangle are congruent to two angles of another triangle, the triangles are similar.Corresponding Angles Postulate - If two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, then the pairs of corresponding angles are congruent.
Yes, they are.
The Side-Side-Side (SSS) postulate states that if all three sides of one triangle are congruent to the corresponding sides of another triangle, then the two triangles are congruent. In other words, if the lengths of the three sides of one triangle are equal to the lengths of the corresponding three sides of another triangle, then the two triangles are congruent.
Yes, they are.
A congruent triangle is a triangle that has the same size and shape as another triangle. This means that all corresponding sides and angles of the triangles are equal. Congruent triangles can be identified in geometric figures by comparing the lengths of their sides and the measures of their angles to see if they match up exactly.
