What’s on the Proving Triangles Congruent poster
The rule, 4 worked examples, and the mistake everyone makes.
- Two triangles are congruent if you can establish any one of these five combinations o…
- SSS · SAS · ASA · AAS · HL
- SSS = three sides equal
- SAS = two sides and the angle between
- ASA / AAS = two angles and a side
- HL = right triangles only
- Common mistake: SSA proves congruence → SSA does not
AAA proves similarity, never congruence — the shapes match but the sizes need not.

- When should you use the Proving Triangles Congruent poster?
- Mark the given information on the diagram before writing a single line of proof. A wall chart earns its place by being glanceable from where the work is happening, so Proving Triangles Congruent belongs on the wall where that math work actually happens, within glancing distance, rather than filed away.
- What other posters go with Proving Triangles Congruent?
- Writing a Geometry Proof, Absolute Value Equations and Arithmetic Sequences sit alongside Proving Triangles Congruent in the 9th Grade set. Printed together they make a wall rather than a single sheet, which is how a reference set actually gets used.Writing a Geometry ProofAbsolute Value EquationsArithmetic Sequences
- Is the Proving Triangles Congruent poster free to download and print?
