Question

are these triangles congruent? if so, which method is used? ssa, not congruent aas asa sas

Explanation:

Step1: Recall triangle congruence criteria

Triangle congruence criteria include SSS (Side - Side - Side), SAS (Side - Angle - Side), ASA (Angle - Side - Angle), AAS (Angle - Angle - Side). SSA (Side - Side - Angle) is not a valid congruence criterion in general.

Step2: Analyze the given triangles

We are given two angles and a non - included side. For triangle \(KML\) and triangle \(STU\), we have two angles equal and a side equal. The AAS (Angle - Angle - Side) congruence criterion states that if two angles and a non - included side of one triangle are equal to two angles and the corresponding non - included side of another triangle, then the two triangles are congruent.

Answer:

AAS
