Question

the sss congruence theorem quick check
what does the sss congruence theorem say? (1 point)
if a triangle has three congruent sides, then it is equilateral.
if a polygon has three sides, then it is a triangle.
if two triangles have three pairs of sides, then the triangles are congruent.
if two triangles have three pairs of congruent sides, then the triangles are congruent.

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

The SSS (Side - Side - Side) Congruence Theorem states that when the three sides of one triangle are congruent to the three corresponding sides of another triangle, the two triangles are congruent. The first option is about the definition of an equilateral triangle, the second is about the definition of a triangle, and the third incorrect option lacks the 'congruent' condition for the sides.

Answer:

If two triangles have three pairs of congruent sides, then the triangles are congruent.
