Answer:The SAS criterion for triangle congruence states that if two triangles have two pairs of congruent sides and the included angle (the one between the congruent sides) in one triangle is congruent to the included angle in the other triangle, then the triangles are congruent.

Explanation:

How do you prove two triangles are congruent using SAS?

SAS theorem of congruence: The SAS (side-angle-side) theorem of congruence states that if two sides and their included angle in one triangle are exactly equal to the corresponding two sides and their included angle in another triangle, then the two triangles are congruent.

How can you determine if the two triangles are congruent?

So we know that two triangles are congruent if all of their sides are the same-- so side, side, side. We also know they are congruent if we have a side and then an angle between the sides and then another side that is congruent-- so side, angle, side.
