Interpret expressions for
functions in terms of the situation they
model. MCC9-12.F.LE.5
Here you’ll learn how to prove that triangles are congruent given information only about two of their angles and one
of their sides.
Standards
MCC9-12.F.LE.5 Interpret the parameters in a linear or exponential function in terms of a context.[U+2605]
What if you were given two triangles and provided with only the measure of two of their angles and one of their side
lengths? How could you determine if the two triangles were congruent? After completing this Concept, you’ll be
able to use the Angle-Side-Angle (ASA) and Angle-Angle-Side (AAS) shortcuts to prove triangle congruency.

James Sousa: Example 2: Prove Two Triangles are Congruent
Guidance
If two angles and one side in one triangle are congruent to the corresponding two angles and one side in another
triangle, then the two triangles are congruent. This idea encompasses two triangle congruence shortcuts: AngleSide-Angle and Angle-Angle-Side.
Angle-Side-Angle (ASA) Congruence Postulate: If two angles and the included side in one triangle are congruent
to two angles and the included side in another triangle, then the two triangles are congruent.
Angle-Angle-Side (AAS) Congruence Theorem: If two angles and a non-included side in one triangle are congruent to two angles and the corresponding non-included side in another triangle, then the triangles are congruent.
The placement of the word Side is important because it indicates where the side that you are given is in relation to
the angles. The pictures below help to show the difference between the two shortcuts.

a) AB ∼
= UT
b) AC ∼
= UV
c) BC ∼
= TV
d) 6 B ∼
=6 T
For ASA, we need the side between the two given angles, which is AC and UV . The answer is b.
Example B
Write a 2-column proof.
Given: 6 C ∼
= 6 E, AC ∼
= AE
Prove: 4ACF ∼
= 4AEB

2. 6 A = 6 A
3. 4ACF ∼

2. Reflexive PoC
3. ASA
Example C
What information do you need to prove that these two triangles are congruent using:
a) ASA?
b) AAS?
Solution:
a) For ASA, we need the angles on the other side of EF and QR. 6 F ∼
=6 Q
b) For AAS, we would need the other angle. 6 G ∼
=6 P

CK-12 ASA and AAS Triangle Congruence
Guided Practice
1. Can you prove that the following triangles are congruent? Why or why not?
2. Write a 2-column proof.
Given: BD is an angle bisector of 6 CDA, 6 C ∼
=6 A
Prove: 4CBD ∼
= 6 ABD
3. Write a 2-column proof.
Given: AB||ED, 6 C ∼
= 6 F, AB ∼
= ED
Prove: AF ∼
= CD
Answers:
1. We cannot show the triangles are congruent because KL and ST are not corresponding, even though they are
congruent. To determine if KL and ST are corresponding, look at the angles around them, 6 K and 6 L and 6 S and
6 T . 6 K has one arc and 6 L is unmarked. 6 S has two arcs and 6 T is unmarked. In order to use AAS, 6 S needs to be
congruent to 6 K.
