Hello,
so all you have to do is match the abbreviations to the triangles. The abbreviations stand for what is the SAME in both triangles, denoted by similar markings on equal sides and angles.
Abbreviations:
SSS = Side-Side-Side
SAS = Side-Angle-Side
ASA = Angle-Side-Angle
AAS = Angle-Angle-Side
HL = Hypotenuse-Leg
* Note - the angle side angle must go around the triangle in that order. ASA has the side BETWEEN the congruent angles.. SSA does NOT work.
(9.) ASA
(10.) AAS
(11.) SSS
(12.) No way to tell if congruent. (only 3 angles no side)
(13.) ASA
(14.) SAS
(15.) HL
The commutative property of 9+8=17 is 8+9=17 because the commutative property states that it doesn't matter the order of the number but as long as u get the same answer.
