Copy of TESTS FOR SIMILARITY

AAA Test

For a given correspondence of vertices, when corresponding angles of two triangles are congruent, then the two triangles are similar.

SAS Test

For a given correspondence of vertices of two triangles, if two pairs of corresponding sides are in the same proportion and the angle between them are congruent, then the two triangles are similar.

SSS Test

For a given correspondence of vertices of two triangles, when three sides of a triangle are in proportion to corresponding three sides of another triangle, then the two triangles are similar.
