  2. Congruence (geometry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Congruence_(geometry)

    The statement is often used as a justification in elementary geometry proofs when a conclusion of the congruence of parts of two triangles is needed after the congruence of the triangles has been established. For example, if two triangles have been shown to be congruent by the SSS criteria and a statement that corresponding angles are congruent ...

  3. AA postulate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AA_postulate

    In Euclidean geometry, the AA postulate states that two triangles are similar if they have two corresponding angles congruent. The AA postulate follows from the fact that the sum of the interior angles of a triangle is always equal to 180°. By knowing two angles, such as 32° and 64° degrees, we know that the next angle is 84°, because 180 ...

  4. 5-Con triangles - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/5-Con_triangles

    The smallest 5-Con triangles with integral sides. In geometry, two triangles are said to be 5-Con or almost congruent if they are not congruent triangles but they are similar triangles and share two side lengths (of non-corresponding sides). The 5-Con triangles are important examples for understanding the solution of triangles. Indeed, knowing ...

  5. Langley's Adventitious Angles - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Langley's_Adventitious_Angles

    The article contains a history of the problem and a picture featuring the regular triacontagon and its diagonals. In 2015, an anonymous Japanese woman using the pen name "aerile re" published the first known method (the method of 3 circumcenters) to construct a proof in elementary geometry for a special class of adventitious quadrangles problem.

  6. Hinge theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hinge_theorem

    In geometry, the hinge theorem (sometimes called the open mouth theorem) states that if two sides of one triangle are congruent to two sides of another triangle, and the included angle of the first is larger than the included angle of the second, then the third side of the first triangle is longer than the third side of the second triangle. [1]

  7. Similarity (geometry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Similarity_(geometry)

    Any two pairs of angles are congruent, [4] which in Euclidean geometry implies that all three angles are congruent: [a] If ∠ BAC is equal in measure to ∠ B'A'C', and ∠ ABC is equal in measure to ∠ A'B'C', then this implies that ∠ ACB is equal in measure to ∠ A'C'B' and the triangles are similar.

  8. Hilbert's axioms - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hilbert's_axioms

    To a system of points, straight lines, and planes, it is impossible to add other elements in such a manner that the system thus generalized shall form a new geometry obeying all of the five groups of axioms. In other words, the elements of geometry form a system which is not susceptible of extension, if we regard the five groups of axioms as valid.
