Question
0 - 6. (from a previous course) aiza creates two triangles. both have sides measuring 1 ft and 3 ft and an angle measuring 70°. are the two triangles the same or different? how do you know?
Step1: Recall triangle - congruence rules
The given information is two - sides and a non - included angle (SSA). SSA does not guarantee triangle congruence.
Step2: Consider possible triangle shapes
With two sides of lengths 1 ft and 3 ft and a non - included angle of 70°, we can construct two non - congruent triangles.

The two triangles are different. SSA (two sides and a non - included angle) does not determine a unique triangle.
