4-2 Triangle Congruence by
SSS and SAS
Objective: to prove two triangles congruent using the SSS and SAS
Postulates
Remember: 4.1 Triangle
Congruence
If you know 3 pairs of Corresponding Angles are
congruent and 3 pairs of Corresponding Sides are
Congruent, you knew that the triangles were
congruent.
Side Side Side Postulate
—  All we need is to show 3 pairs of Corresponding Sides are
congruent in order to prove Triangle Congruence.
—  Let’s look at a couple of two-column proofs that utilize the
SSS Postulate.
Ex 1:Using SSS
Given
BD ≅ BD
Reflexive Property
SSS Postulate
Ex 1B:Try Another Proof!
Included
—  What does it mean to be included? Like you were
included in an event or batteries are included?
—  The word Included can also used when referring to
the sides and angles of a Triangle.
SAS Postulate
Ex 3: Are the Triangles
Congruent?
Ex 3B: Are the Triangles
Congruent?
Ex 3C: Are the Triangles
Congruent?
ΔACB ≅ ΔDBC
