1. The document provides instructions for students to complete an assignment proving that two triangles are congruent using the Side-Angle-Side (SAS) Congruence Postulate.
2. Students are asked to draw two triangles, measure their corresponding sides and included angles, and state that the triangles are congruent because they satisfy the SAS postulate.
3. The assignment directs students to prove two other triangles congruent using SAS, giving at least three statements with reasons.
2. Statement of theAim:
1. Complete the congruence statement using SAS
Congruence Postulate;
2. Illustrate how the triangles become congruent
through SAS Congruence Postulate;
3. Prove that the triangles are congruent using SAS
Congruence Postulate.
3. Dothe following in your group:
1. Draw a 15cm line segment.
2. Name it as .
3. Using your protractor, draw angle B equal to 70
degrees.
4. From the vertex B, draw measuring 18cm long.
5. Draw .

5. SAS (Side-Angle-Side) Congruence Postulate
If the two sides an included angle of one triangle are
congruent to the corresponding two sides and an
included angle of another triangle, then the two
triangles are congruent.

7. Draw a rectangle and split into two triangles. Name the
two triangles and illustrate how they become
congruent through SAS Congruence Postulate. Explain
how they become congruent in your own idea. Use ½
