It means that if two triangles have two sides with the lengths of the corresponding sides that are equal (congruent) and the angles between between the two sides congruent, then the triangles are congruent (i.e., the three corresponding lengths of sides and three corresponding angles are all congruent).

For example, if you know that triangle one has sides of length 1 and 2 and the angle between the two sides is 60 degrees and that triangle two has sides of length 1 and 2 and the angle between the two sides is 60 degrees, this theorem says that the triangles are congruent, so the length of third side of both triangles is the same and the measure of the other two angles in triangle one is the ame as the measure of the other two angles in triangle two.

Is SSA a criteria for triangle congruence?

SSA (Side-Side-Angle) is not a valid criterion for triangle congruence. While it can sometimes lead to two triangles being congruent (the "Ambiguous Case"), it does not guarantee it in all situations. Other criteria, such as SSS (Side-Side-Side), SAS (Side-Angle-Side), and AAS (Angle-Angle-Side), provide definitive ways to establish triangle congruence.

Which postulate or theorem verifies the congruence of a triangle?

The Side-Angle-Side (SAS) Congruence Postulate verifies the congruence of triangles by stating that if two sides of one triangle are equal to two sides of another triangle, and the included angle between those sides is also equal, then the two triangles are congruent. Other congruence criteria include the Side-Side-Side (SSS) theorem, which asserts that if all three sides of one triangle are equal to the corresponding sides of another triangle, the triangles are congruent. Additionally, the Angle-Side-Angle (ASA) theorem and the Angle-Angle-Side (AAS) theorem also establish triangle congruence based on angles and sides.

Is ABC DEF name the congruence postulate that applies?

The "ABC DEF" naming convention does not directly refer to a specific congruence postulate in geometry. However, congruence postulates generally include Side-Side-Side (SSS), Side-Angle-Side (SAS), and Angle-Side-Angle (ASA) among others. To determine which postulate applies, you would need to specify the relationships between the angles and sides of triangles ABC and DEF.
