Theorems, Postulates, Definitions and Properties 4.1 Polygons are congruent if and only if all of their corresponding parts are congruent. Theorem - If two angles of one triangle are congruent to two angles of another triangle, then the third angles are congruent. 4.2 Postulate - SSS - If the three sides of one triangle are congruent to the corresponding three sides of another triangle, then the two triangles are congruent. Postulate - SAS – If two sides and the included angle of one triangle are congruent to the corresponding two sides and the included angle of another triangle, then the two triangles are congruent. 4.3 Postulate - ASA – If two angles and the included side of one triangle are congruent to the corresponding two angles and the included side of another triangle, then the two triangles are congruent. Theorem - AAS – If two angles and a nonincluded side of one triangle are congruent to the corresponding two angles and the nonincluded side of another triangle, then the triangles are congruent. 4.5 A triangle is isosceles if and only if at least two sides of the triangle are congruent. Theorem - If two sides of a triangle are congruent, then the angles opposite those sides are congruent. Theorem - If two angles of a triangle are congruent, then the sides opposite those angles are congruent. Theorem - If a line bisects the vertex angle of an isosceles triangle, then the line is also the perpendicular bisector of the base. Theorem - If a triangle is equilateral, then the triangle is equiangular. Theorem - If a triangle is equiangular, then the triangle is equilateral. 4.6 Theorem - If the hypotenuse and a leg of one right triangle are congruent to the hypotenuse and a leg of another right triangle, then the triangles are congruent.
