Answer: Answer below

Explanation:

A congruent triangle is when they have exactly the same three sides and exactly the same three angles. The congruent side has to equal the same value and the same for the angles.

There are five ways to prove that two triangles are congruent.

SSS = when all sides of both triangles are the same

SAS = when there's an angle between two sides for both triangles

ASA = when there's a side between two angles for both triangles

AAS = when there are two angles and one side for both triangles (not in between)

HL = When two triangles have the same hypotenuse and a pair of congruent sides. They have to have a 90-degree angle.

AAA and SSA is not congruent.

Answer:

Two triangles are said to be congruent if all three corresponding sides are equal and all the three corresponding angles are equal in measure.
