What are the 5 ways to prove a triangles congruency?
A s a, s s s, a a a, a a s, & s a s
What is the theorem that proves triangles congruent?
law of congruency
What are three ways that triangles are congruent?
Triangles are congruent when:All three sides are the same length (SSS congruency)Two sides and the angle between them are the same length (SAS congruency)Two angles and the side between them are the same length (ASA congruency)
Why are two congruent triangles also similar?
Search Definition of Congruency
Which postulate theorem verifies the congruence of two right triangles?
RHS congruency, or, right angle, hypotenuse and corresponding side.
Did pascal invent congruency of triangles?
No, he did not. In actual fact nobody "invented" congruency.
Who is the father of congruence of triangles?
The father of congruence of triangles is Euclid, a renowned ancient Greek mathematician known as the "Father of Geometry." In his seminal work, "Elements," Euclid laid down the foundational principles of geometry, including the concept of congruence of triangles. He established the criteria for triangle congruence, such as the Side-Angle-Side (SAS) and Angle-Side-Angle (ASA) postulates, which are still fundamental in modern geometry. Euclid's contributions to the study of triangles and their congruence have had a lasting impact on mathematics and geometric reasoning.

Are two triangles are congruent if 3 sides are equal?
triangle congruency

Which are congruence theorems for right triangles?
If the hypotenuse and a leg of two right triangles are the same measure, the triangles are congruent
What are the congruence theorems or postulates?
They are theorems that specify the conditions that must be met for two triangles to be congruent.
What are some different triangles?
You have acute, right, and obtuse triangles when referring to the measure of the largest angle, and you have equilateral, isosceles, and scalene triangles when referring to the congruency of the triangle's sides.
Congruence theorems for right triangles?
LL , La , HL and Ha
Why corresponding parts AAA triplet does not prove congruency?
Because triangles add up to 180 degrees
