Question

1. sss stands for __. side-side-segment similar-similar-similar side-side-side side-angle-side

Explanation:

In geometry (a subfield of Mathematics), the SSS criterion for triangle congruence or similarity stands for "Side - Side - Side", which means if the three sides of one triangle are equal (or in proportion for similarity) to the three corresponding sides of another triangle, the triangles are congruent (or similar). The other options do not correctly represent what SSS stands for. "Side - Side - Segment" is incorrect as segment is not the right term here. "Similar - Similar - Similar" is not the meaning of SSS. "Side - Angle - Side" is the SAS criterion, not SSS.

Answer:

C. Side - Side - Side
