Answer:

The answer is : False

Explanation:

In geometry, two figures or objects are said to be congruent if they have the same shape and size, or if one has the same shape and size as the mirror image of the other.

In Euclidean geometry, AAA( or simply AA) does not provide information regarding the size of the two triangles and hence proves only similarity and not congruence in Euclidean space.

Hence, the given statement is False.

FalseĀ  They would be similar (same shape) but not necessarily congruent ( where they are the same shape and the corresponding sides are equal as well).
