It does not necessarily prove congruence but it does prove similarity. You can have a smaller or bigger triangle that has the same interior angles.

What are the only two triangle congruence shortcuts that do not work?

The only Two Triangle congruence shortcuts that do not prove congruence are: 1.AAA( Three pairs of angles in a triangle) & 2.ASS or SSA(If the angle is not in between the two sides like ASA.


AAA guarantees congruence between two triangles?

False


What is L-AAA Congruence Theorem?

Adele is pretty awsome


What are not congruence theorems?

I am guessing you are interested in triangles. Here are two false triangle congruence theorem conjectures.1, If the angles of one triangle are equal respectively to the angles of another triangle, the triangles are congruent. ( abbreviated AAA).2. If two sides and one angle of a triangle are equal respectively the two sides and one angle of another triangle, the triangles are congruent. (abbreviated SSA)Comment: Draw triangles with pairs of equal sides but in which the included angle between the equal sides is acute in one case and obtuse in the others.


Wwhich of the following are not congruence theorems or postulates?

the congruence theorems or postulates are: SAS AAS SSS ASA


Is AAA theorem describes congruence of all three sides in corresponding triangles SSS postulate describes congruence of all three angles in corresponding triangles a true statement?

true


Why isn't there an AAA postulate for similarity?

there isn't a AAA postulate because,,, for a triangle to be equal, there HAS to be a side in it


What is the meaning of AAA Similarity Theorem?

If three angles of one triangle are congruent to three angles of another triangle then by the AAA similarity theorem, the two triangles are similar. Actually, you need only two angles of one triangle being congruent to two angle of the second triangle.


What is the AAA theorem and the SSS postulate?

There is no AAA theorem since it is not true. SSS is, in fact a theorem, not a postulate. It states that if the three sides of one triangle are equal in magnitude to the corresponding three sides of another triangle, then the two triangles are congruent.


What is the aaa and the sss postulate theorem?

There is no AAA theorem since it is not true. SSS is, in fact a theorem, not a postulate. It states that if the three sides of one triangle are equal in magnitude to the corresponding three sides of another triangle, then the two triangles are congruent.


Is side angle angle a congruence shortcut?

No, the side-side-angle in congruence shortcut DOESN'T exist..hint-SSA turns backward--->ASS<---thats the problem of no word will come on math..kinda funny to laugh about but SSA=GET rid off it! use SSS, SAS, ASA, SAA, SSS, and AAA.


What is triangle congruence conjecture?

its a shortcut to tell whether two triangles are congruent to each other or not its a shortcut because you can tell it without having to use geometric tools. There are Four types of them SAS (side angle side) ASA (angle side angle) SSS (side side side) and SAA ( side angle angle), in first one , if two sides and one included angle is congruent to two side and one included angle of another triangle then both triangle are congruent to each other. Second is ASA,, if two angles and one included side are congruent to two angles and one included side of another triangle then they both are congruent to each other. and so on like other one's too (hope you understand my point here). only two cases are not possible here and those are ASS (angle side side) because its not necessary if one angle and two sides are congruent to something then they will be congruent to each other , and the other false statement is AAA (angle angle angle) you could easily have one really small triangle with the same angles of a really big triangle but they will not be congruent so this conjecture would not work.
