SSS = Side-Side-Side
If three sides of one triangle are congruent to three sides of another triangle then the triangles are congruent.


SAS  = Side-Angle-Side
If two sides and the included angle are equal to the corresponding parts of another triangle then the triangles are congruent.'
The angle must be formed by the two pairs of congruent, corresponding sides of the triangles. If the angles are not formed by the two sides that are congruent and corresponding to the other triangle's parts then you cannot use the SAS postulate.

you will notice that the main difference between the two postulates is that the SAS consists of an angle and the SSS does not.

hope this helps :)

Kitara has 100 quarters and dimes. Their total value is $19. How many of each coin does Kitara have?
Sedbober [7]
Q + d = 100 so q = 100 - d
0.25q + 0.10d = 19

substitute q = 100 - d into 0.25q + 0.10d = 19

0.25q + 0.10d = 19
0.25(100 - d) + 0.10d = 19
25 - 0.25d + 0.10d = 19
-0.15d = -6
        d = 40

q = 100 - 40 = 60

answer
Kitara has 60 quarters and 40 dimes

<u><em>Answer:</em></u>

The bird will have traveled 403 meters in 13 seconds if it maintained a speed of 31 m/sec

<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>

<u>The equation that relates velocity, distance and time is:</u>

velocity = \frac{distance}{time}

<u>This means that:</u>

distance = velocity * time

<u>In the given, we have:</u>

velocity = 31 m/sec

time = 13 sec

<u>Substitute with the givens in the above equation and solve for the distance as follows:</u>

distance = velocity * time

distance = 31 * 13

distance = 403 meters

Hope this helps :)
