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).
Is it true that two triangles have 3 pairs of congruent angles then the triangle are not guaranteed to be congruent?
When two triangles are congruent, there are 6 facts that are true about the triangles. The triangles have 3 sets of congruent (of equal length) sides and the triangles have 3 sets of congruent (of equal measure) angles.
Are two triangles are congruent if they have the same base?
No. All corresponding sides and angles have to be congruent for the triangles to be congruent.
If all corresponding sides and angles of two triangles are congruent those triangles are?
The triangles are also congruent.
What does CPCTC mean in math terms?
CPCTC is an acronym for the phrase 'corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent' It means that once we know that two triangles are congruent, we know that all corresponding sides and angles are congruent.
What postulate or theorem verifies the congruence of triangles?
sssThere are five methods for proving the congruence of triangles. In SSS, you prove that all three sides of two triangles are congruent to each other. In SAS, if two sides of the triangles and the angle between them are congruent, then the triangles are congruent. In ASA, if two angles of the triangles and the side between them are congruent, then the triangles are congruent. In AAS, if two angles and one of the non-included sides of two triangles are congruent, then the triangles are congruent. In HL, which only applies to right triangles, if the hypotenuse and one leg of the two triangles are congruent, then the triangles are congruent.
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.
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 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).
The term for two triangles that are congruent after a dilation is?
The term for two triangles that are congruent after a dilation is similar.
Is it true that two triangles have 3 pairs of congruent angles then the triangle are not guaranteed to be congruent?
When two triangles are congruent, there are 6 facts that are true about the triangles. The triangles have 3 sets of congruent (of equal length) sides and the triangles have 3 sets of congruent (of equal measure) angles.
Are two triangles are congruent if they have the same base?
No. All corresponding sides and angles have to be congruent for the triangles to be congruent.
If all corresponding sides and angles of two triangles are congruent those triangles are?
The triangles are also congruent.
What is c.p.c.t?
Corresponding Parts of Congruent Triangles is the full form od CPCT.
What does CPCTC mean in math terms?
CPCTC is an acronym for the phrase 'corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent' It means that once we know that two triangles are congruent, we know that all corresponding sides and angles are congruent.
If any two sides and any angle are congruent in two triangles then the triangles must be congruent?
False
What are the two properties of congruent triangles?
All the corresponding sides in congruent triangles are equal All the corresponding angles in congruent triangles are equal
