Question

Identify the postulate or theorem that proves the triangles congruent. A. SAS B. SSS C. SSA D. The triangles cannot be proven congruent.

Answer 1

Answer:

C) SSA is NOT  a congruent postulate to prove any two triangles congruent to each other.

Step-by-step explanation:

Two Triangles are said to congruent if three sides of one triangle is equal to the 3 corresponding sides of other triangle and 3 angles on one triangle is equal to other 3 corresponding angles.

Two triangles can be proved congruent to each other by

A. SSS (SIDE SIDE SIDE) Postulate

Here, the threes sides of one triangle is equal to the 3 corresponding sides of the other triangle.

B. SAS (SIDE ANGLE SIDE) Postulate

Here, the two sides and any one angle  of one triangle is equal to the two corresponding sides and one  angle of the other triangle.

C. ASA ( ANGLE SIDE ANGLE) Postulate

Here, the two angles and the included angle  of one triangle is equal to the two corresponding sides and included angle of the other triangle.

Hence, from the above option SSA is NOT  A congruent postulate to prove any two triangles congruent to each other.
