2. Corresponding sides and corresponding angles - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corresponding_sides_and...

   The corresponding angles as well as the corresponding sides are defined as appearing in the same sequence, so for example if in a polygon with the side sequence abcde and another with the corresponding side sequence vwxyz we have vertex angle a appearing between sides a and b then its corresponding vertex angle v must appear between sides v and w.

3. Triangle - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triangle

   Two triangles are said to be similar, if every angle of one triangle has the same measure as the corresponding angle in the other triangle. The corresponding sides of similar triangles have lengths that are in the same proportion, and this property is also sufficient to establish similarity. [39] Some basic theorems about similar triangles are:

4. 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 ...

5. Congruence (geometry) - Wikipedia

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

   AAS (angle-angle-side): If two pairs of angles of two triangles are equal in measurement, and a pair of corresponding non-included sides are equal in length, then the triangles are congruent. AAS is equivalent to an ASA condition, by the fact that if any two angles are given, so is the third angle, since their sum should be 180°.

6. Similarity (geometry) - Wikipedia

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

   If two angles of a triangle have measures equal to the measures of two angles of another triangle, then the triangles are similar. Corresponding sides of similar polygons are in proportion, and corresponding angles of similar polygons have the same measure. Two congruent shapes are similar, with a scale factor of 1. However, some school ...

7. Transversal (geometry) - Wikipedia

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

   Corresponding angles are the four pairs of angles that: have distinct vertex points, lie on the same side of the transversal and; one angle is interior and the other is exterior. Two lines are parallel if and only if the two angles of any pair of corresponding angles of any transversal are congruent (equal in measure).

8. Law of sines - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Law_of_sines

   In trigonometry, the law of sines, sine law, sine formula, or sine rule is an equation relating the lengths of the sides of any triangle to the sines of its angles. According to the law, ⁡ = ⁡ = ⁡ =, where a, b, and c are the lengths of the sides of a triangle, and α, β, and γ are the opposite angles (see figure 2), while R is the radius of the triangle's circumcircle.

9. Law of cosines - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Law_of_cosines

   Fig. 1 – A triangle. The angles α (or A), β (or B), and γ (or C) are respectively opposite the sides a, b, and c.. In trigonometry, the law of cosines (also known as the cosine formula or cosine rule) relates the lengths of the sides of a triangle to the cosine of one of its angles.
