Solution

1.

True

There can be two cases of side, one being the given side is included between two angles and other will be the given side is non-included between two angles.

a)

If any two angles and a non-included side of one triangle are equal to the corresponding angles and side of another triangle then the triangles are congruent by AAS congruence criterion.

b)

If two angles and the included side of one triangle are equal to the corresponding two angles and the included side of other triangle then the triangles are congruent by ASA congruence criterion.

2.

False

The RHS congruence criterion is defined as:

If under a correspondence, the hypotenuse and one side of a right triangle are respectively equal to the hypotenuse and one side of another triangle then the triangles are congruent.
