To compare and constract: between the AA-similarity, SSS- similarity, SAS similarity, theorem
Answer to Problem 37HP
All three postulates and theorems are used to show
Explanation of Solution
All three postulates and theorems are used to show triangles are similar.
They differ by what is required.
AA Similarity Postulate: If two angles in one triangle are congruent to two angles in another triangle, the two triangles are similar.
SSS Similarity Theorem: If all three pairs of corresponding sides of two triangles are proportional, then the two triangles are similar.
The SAS Similarity Theorem states that if two sides in one triangle are proportional to two sides in another triangle and the included angle in both are congruent, then the two triangles are similar.
