This guide provides a structured approach to establishing triangle congruence using various methods such as SSS, SAS, ASA, AAS, and HL. Each proof is broken down into clear, step-by-step instructions. You’ll learn how to mark given information, identify reflexive sides, choose the appropriate method, and list parts along with their reasons. The guide also includes multiple problems to practice and reinforce your understanding of triangle congruence theorems. Enhance your skills in geometry with this essential resource for students and teachers alike.
