Two triangles, \(\triangle ABC\) and \(\triangle DEF\), have \(AB = DE\), \(\angle ABC = \angle DEF\), and \(BC = EF\). By which rule are they congruent?
- SSS
- ASA
- SAS
- RHS
Correct answer: SAS
Solution
The triangles have two corresponding sides equal and the included angle between them equal. This matches the Side-Angle-Side (SAS) congruence criterion. Therefore, the triangles are congruent by SAS.
