Question

Decide whether you can use SSS, SAS, AAS or HL to prove the following triangles are congruent. If you can, on line 1 write the congruence statement and on line 2 justify why triangles are congruent. If not possible, write not enough info. Help need to help son on test tomorrow.

Answer 1

The congruency postulates for the triangles are:

q) AAS Congruency Postulate.

r) SSS Congruency Postulate.

s) SAS Congruency Postulate.

t) No congruency.

u) ASA Congruency Postulate.

v) SAS Congruency Postulate.

w) SAS Congruency Postulate.

x) SSS Congruency Postulate.

y) SAS Congruency Postulate.

How to find out the triangle congruence postulate?

There are different triangle congruence postulates such as:

SAS

ASA

AAS

SSS

HL

q) We are given two congruent angles and the non-included side and as such the congruence postulate is AAS Congruency Postulate.

r) We are given three congruent sides and as such the congruence postulate is SSS Congruency Postulate.

s) We are given two congruent sides and the included angle and as such the congruence postulate is SAS Congruency Postulate.

t) We are given only two congruent angles and no congruent side and as such they are not congruent.

u) We are given two congruent angles and the included side and as such the congruence postulate is ASA Congruency Postulate.

v) We are given two congruent sides and the included angle and as such the congruence postulate is SAS Congruency Postulate.

w) We are given two congruent sides and the included angle and as such the congruence postulate is SAS Congruency Postulate.

x) We are given three congruent sides and as such the congruence postulate is SSS Congruency Postulate.

y) We are given two congruent sides and the included angle and as such the congruence postulate is SAS Congruency Postulate.
