Answer::

SSS: When all three sides are equal to each other on both triangles, the triangle is congruent. AAS: If two angles and a non-included (you can think of it as outside) side of one triangle are congruent to the corresponding parts of another triangle, then the triangles are congruent.

Therefore let's solve according to the statement..

1) yes..all three sides are equal

2)no..all sides aren't equal

3)yes..all sides are equal

4)no..all sides aren't equal

Hope this helped u..

Answer:

1) No 2) No 3) Yes; SAS 4) Yes; AAS

Explanation:

In the first triangle, you see two sides are congruent to each other, and there is an angle but it is not in between. An Angle-Side-Side-Postulate doesn't exist, so this will be a no. For number 2, you see one angle and two sides are congruent. The angle isn't between the triangles, so this is not congruent. Again, an Angle-Side-Side Postulate doesn't exist. For number three, we see two sides are given, and the two triangles intersect. This gives us a vertical angle, and vertical angles are congruent. We can conclude these triangles are congruent by the Side-Angle-Side Postulate. Lastly, we're given one side and one angle. We can also infer that the vertical angles are congruent, so this will be the result of Angle-Angle-Side.
