Answer:

SSS - This means side side side. You must have 3 congruent sides in both triangles to prove them congruent.

SAS - This means side angle side. You must have 2 sides and an included angle in both triangles to prove them congruent.

ASA - This means angle side angle. You must have 2 angles and an included side in both triangles to prove them congruent.

AAS - This means angle angle side. You must have 2 angles and a side in both triangles to prove them congruent.

NOTE: included basically means in between.
