Congruent Triangle Methods
Side-Side-Side (SSS) Postulate
• If the three sides of one triangle are congruent
to the three sides of another triangle, then the
two triangles are congruent.
Side-Side-Side (SSS) Postulate
If AN≌LC, NP ≌CK, and AP ≌ LK,
then ∆APN ≌ ∆LKC .
Using SSS
• Given: MO≌LK and KM≌OL
• Prove: ∆KOM ≌ ∆OKL

SSS Postulate
Side-Angle-Side (SAS) Postulate
• If two sides and the included angle of one
triangle are congruent to two sides and the
included angle of another triangle, then the
two triangles are congruent.
