Question

2/5
which theorem states that if three pairs of corresponding sides in
two triangles are congruent, the triangles are congruent?
side-side-side (sss)
angle-side-angle (asa)
side-angle-side (sas)
angle-angle-side (aas)

Explanation:

The question asks for the triangle congruence theorem that relies on three pairs of corresponding congruent sides. Each option corresponds to a distinct congruence rule:

1. SSS uses three matching sides.
2. ASA uses two angles and the included side.
3. SAS uses two sides and the included angle.
4. AAS uses two angles and a non-included side.

The description matches the SSS theorem.

Answer:

1. Side-Side-Side (SSS)
