However, there is a "shortcut" in which only three pairs of congruent corresponding parts are needed in order to conclude that the triangles are congruent.
SAS Congruence
If two sides and an included angle of one triangle are congruent to two sides and an included angle of another triangle, then the triangles are congruent.
We can show this by using a sequence of rigid motions.
Side-Angle-Side Congruence by basic rigid motions.
ASA Congruence
If two angles and an included side of one triangle are congruent to two angles and an included side of another triangle, then the triangles are congruent.
We can show this by using a sequence of rigid motions.

SSS Congruence
If three sides of one triangle are congruent to three sides of another triangle, then the triangles are congruent.
