Congruent triangles

Same shape AND same size — SSS, SAS, ASA, AAS, RHS prove it.

Congruent triangles are identical — same shape AND same size.

Five proofs

  • SSS — three sides match.
  • SAS — two sides and the angle between match.
  • ASA — two angles and the side between match.
  • AAS — two angles and a non-included side match.
  • RHS — right angle, hypotenuse and one side match.
