Side-Side-Side Congruence Postulate (SSS)
• If the sides of one triangle are congruent to the sides of a second triangle, then the triangles are congruent.

Proving Congruence – SSS, SAS
Included angle – In a triangle, an angle that is formed by two sides is between them and, thus, referred to as included by those two sides.
Side-Angle-Side Congruence Postulate (SAS)
• If two sides and the included angle of one triangle are congruent to two sides and the included angle of another triangle, then the triangles are congruent.
