Such triangles are similar.
Sides
No- triangles with all angles respectively equal need not be congruent. For example, all equilateral triangles have 3 angles of 60 degrees each but the the sides could be any length. However the sides of such triangles are proportional - such triangles are called similar. They look alike except for their scale.
aa. If the angles are equal and the triangles are right triangles, then all three angles are equal, but the sides can grow or shrink, as long as they remain proportional.
Triangles can't have two sides, but a triangle with three congruent sides is a equilateral or three congruent angles in a triangle is equilangular.
If the 3 sides are proportional by ratio and the angles remain the same then the two triangles are similar
Such triangles are similar.
Yes.
Yes. You can even have two triangles with two pairs of sides that are the SAME measure without the triangles being similar.

If the angles are the same and the sides are proportional by ratio then they are said to be similar triangles.

It is not an axiom, but a theorem.

DFN: we call a triangle equilateral if all sides of the triangle are the same length DFN:we call two triangles similar if corresponding angles are equal, and corresponding sides are proportional. First show that all corresponding sides are proportional: Consider a equilateral triangle with side lengths 1, all other equal lateral triangles sides can be expressed as S*(1), where S is some scalar. Hence all equilateral triangles sides are proportional to each other. Next, show that all corresponding angles are equal: The angle between two sides of a triangle is related to the length of the sides. These relationships are called sin, cos, and tan. Knowing that the cos(x), where x is one of the angles in the triangle, is the adjacent divided by the hypotenuse we see that cos(x)=(1/2)c/a, since a = c (because its equal lateral) we are left with cos(x)=(1/2) which means x = 60 degrees. this can be applied to all three angles, which shows that all three angles are 60 degrees. / \ / | \ a / | \ b /__ |__\ c We have now shown that all equal lateral triangles are similar because they all have proportional sides, and they all have equal angles.
