4.5 Prove Triangles Congruent by ASA and AAS
  • Geometry
  • Ms. Rinaldi

2
Angle-Side-Angle (ASA) Congruence Postulate
B
  • If two angles and the included side of one
    triangle are congruent to two angles and the
    included side of a second triangle, then the two
    triangles are congruent.
  • If Angle
  • Side
  • Angle
  • Then

EXAMPLE 1
Use ASA
Decide whether the congruence statement is true.
Explain your reasoning.
SOLUTION
(A) (S) (A)
So, by ASA,

Angle-Angle-Side (AAS) Congruence Postulate
B
  • If two angles and the non-included side of one
    triangle are congruent to two angles and the
    non-included side of a second triangle, then the
    two triangles are congruent.
  • If Angle
  • Angle
  • Side
  • Then
