How to Identify Congruent Triangles?

Identifying congruent triangles involves using the triangle congruence criteria or congruence postulates to determine if two triangles are identical in shape and size.

Congruence Criteria

Side-Side-Side (SSS)
If three sides of one triangle are equal to three sides of another triangle, the triangles are congruent.
Side-Angle-Side (SAS)
If two sides and the included angle of one triangle are equal to two sides and the included angle of another triangle, the triangles are congruent.
Angle-Side-Angle (ASA)
If two angles and the included side of one triangle are equal to two angles and the included side of another triangle, the triangles are congruent.
Angle-Angle-Side (AAS)
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, the triangles are congruent.
Hypotenuse-Leg (HL)
Applicable only to right triangles: if the hypotenuse and one leg of one right triangle are equal to the hypotenuse and one leg of another right triangle, the triangles are congruent.

The condition Side-Side-Angle only gives a unique triangle

when the angle is 90° or greater or
when the side adjacent to the angle is shorter than the side opposite the angle.
