Question

if the two triangles are congruent, state how you know. if not, state
ot congruent.\ aas sss asa sas not congruent

Explanation:

• AAS (Angle - Angle - Side):
• There are two pairs of congruent angles (the marked angles in the two triangles).
• The non - included sides (the sides marked with one tick) are congruent.
• By the AAS congruence criterion, if two angles and a non - included side of one triangle are congruent to two angles and the corresponding non - included side of another triangle, then the two triangles are congruent.
• SSS (Side - Side - Side):
• There is no information about all three sides being congruent. So, we cannot use SSS.
• ASA (Angle - Side - Angle):
• The side is not between the two marked angles. So, ASA is not applicable.
• SAS (Side - Angle - Side):
• There is no information about an included angle between two sides. So, SAS is not applicable.

Answer:

A. AAS
