Question

4 - 4 and 4 - 5 congruent triangle postulates practice (all mixed)
determine if enough information is given to prove the triangles are congruent. if they are congruent, state the rule (sss, sas, asa, aas, hl) used. if not, use: not possible.
these triangles are congruent by the postulate.

Explanation:

Step1: Check congruence rules

The HL (Hypotenuse - Leg) rule is for right - angled triangles. But here, there is no indication that the triangles are right - angled.

Step2: Check SSS rule

SSS (Side - Side - Side) rule states that if three sides of one triangle are equal to three sides of another triangle, the triangles are congruent. Here, we have three pairs of equal sides (marked with tick marks).

Answer:

SSS
