PrepSwift: When are Triangles Congruent? Mini quiz

Can someone please explain this question and answer to me? What is “equality”? I think this question is very misleading since we have not established equality of triangles only congruence. And let us say two triangles have equal AAA, it still does not mean they are equal under any means. Do they have equal angles, yes but the triangles are not congruent.

It’s the same thing.

Then why is AAA congruent according to the answer choices??

Congruence isn’t at play here though? They ask whether each condition (answer choices) satisfy either:

  1. Equality of angles (all angles are same)

  2. Equality of sides (all sides are same)

For congruent triangles, you’d require both 1) and 2), but again it’s irrelevant for the question at hand.

For AAA, 1) is satisfied and so that works for the question.

My bad, you’re right
