Answer:

There are five different postulates and theorems that determine whether or not two triangles are congruent. These triangles do not fit any of them

Explanation:

Side-side-side

Side-angle-side

Angle-side-angle

Angle-angle-side

Hypotenuse-Leg

The sides and angles must be connected in order for the theorem or postulate to apply.

I know it’s confusing, but I hope this helps!!
