4-2 SOME WAYS TO PROVE TRIANGLES CONGRUENT

POSTULATES TO PROVE 2 TRIANGLES ARE CONGRUENT

SSS Side-Side-Side: If 3 sides of a ∆ are congruent to

3 sides of another ∆, then the ∆’s are congruent.

POSTULATES TO PROVE 2 TRIANGLES ARE CONGRUENT

SAS Side-Angle-Side: If 2 sides and the included

angle of a ∆ are congruent to 2 sides and the included angle of another ∆, then the ∆’s are congruent.

Included: in between the 2 sides
