Question

Determine whether ssa is a valid means for establishing triangle congruence. in this case you know the measure of two adjacent sides and two angle opposite to one of then

Answer 1

In this case SSA is not valid for congruence because there are unknown quantities, meaning there is not exactly one triangle that could exist for any given SSA combination. SSA gives two possible triangles, one which is congruent and one which is not.

Explanation:

We have two different triangles, even though they have the same angle and side measurements, this is because we are left with the other two angles who allows us to have two different triangles since their positions can vary, so using SSA to prove congruece between two triangles is not always enough evidence.
