Question 258555: What is the difference between the SSS, ASA, and SAS postulates?
Answer by drk(1908) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
The difference is this:
SSS means side-side - side. We need all three sides of the triangle congruent to call the entire triangle congruent.
--
ASA means angle - side - angle. We need two angles and the included side, or side between two angles to be congruent before we can call the triangles congruent.
--
SAS means side-angle-side. We need two sides and the included angle, or angle between two sides to be congruent before we can call the triangles congruent.
