GIVEN: ∆𝑱𝑳𝑲 ≅ ∆𝑵𝑳𝑴
IF m< 𝑱𝑲𝑳 = 𝟔𝟔𝟎, then m< 𝑵𝑴𝑳 = ?
IF MN=15 in, then KJ = ?

44. SUMMARY:
Two triangles are congruent if they have:
 Exactly the same three side and
 Exactly the same three angles.

45. SUMMARY:
But we don’t have to know all three sides and all three
angles
……..usually three out of six is enough

46. There are four ways to find if two triangles are
congruent: SSS, SAS, ASA and AAS
