Quick review of yesterday
Side Side Side (SSS) Postulate
If three sides of a triangle are
congruent to three sides of
another triangle, then the
triangles are congruent.

Side Angle Side (SAS) Postulate
If two sides and the included angle of a
triangle are congruent to two sides
and the included angle of another
triangle, then the triangles are
congruent.

Lets look at some postulates
Angle Side Angle (ASA)
Postulate
If two angles and the included
side of a triangle are congruent
to two angles and the included
side of another triangle, then
the two triangles are
congruent.

Just one more postulate
Angle Angle Side (AAS)
Postulate
If two angles and a nonincluded
side of a triangle are congruent
to two angles and a
nonincluded side of another
triangle, then the two triangles
are congruent.
