Equal Angles Subtend Equal Sides
AAS or SAA te...
Question

AAS (or SAA) test :
The sum of the measures of angles in a triangle is 180∘ . Therefore, if two corresponding pairs of angles in two triangles are congruent, then the remaining pair of angles is also congruent. Hence, if two angles and a side adjacent to one of them are congruent with corresponding parts of the other triangle then the condition for ASA test is fulfilled. So the triangles are congruent.

Solution

SSS(side side side) Test : All three corresponding sides are equal in length.
SAS (side angle side) Test : A pair of corresponding sides and the included angle are equal.
ASA (angle side angle) Test : A pair of corresponding angles and the included side are equal.
AAS (angle angle side) Test : A pair of corresponding angles and a non-included side are equal.
HL (hypotenuse leg of a right triangle) Test : Two right triangles are congruent if the hypotenuse and one leg are equal.

Q.
Observe the information shown in pairs of triangles given below. State the test by which the two triangles are congruent. Write the remaining congruent parts of the triangles.

(i)

From the information shown in the figure,
in ∆ABC and ∆PQR
∠ABC ≅ ∠PQR
seg BC ≅ seg QR
∠ACB≅ ∠PRQ
∴ ∆ABC ≅ ∆PQR ....... 3243432 test
∴ ∠BAC ≅ 3243432 .......corresponding angles of congruent triangles.

seg AB≅ 1234and 1234 ≅ seg PR...corresponding sides of congruent triangles


(ii)

From the information shown in the figure,
in ∆PTQ and ∆STR
seg PT ≅ seg ST
∠PTQ≅ ∠STR...... vertically opposite angles
∴ ∆PTQ ≅ ∆STR ....... 3243432 test
∴ ∠TPQ≅ 1234and 1234 ≅ ∠TRS...corresponding angles of congruent triangles

seg PQ ≅ 3243432 corresponding sides of congruent triangles
