If you want to use rigid transformations to justify the SSS Congruence Theorem, what type of triangles do you need to start with? Option #1: a pair of triangles that each have three congruent sides Option #2: a pair of triangles with three pairs of congruent sides Option #3: a pair of triangles with all side lengths given Option #4: a pair of triangles with all side lengths given and all angles given (1 point) Option # best describes the type of triangles necessary for justifying the SSS Congruence Theorem.

1 answer

To justify the SSS (Side-Side-Side) Congruence Theorem using rigid transformations, you need to start with triangles that have three pairs of congruent sides. This is because the SSS Congruence Theorem states that if three sides of one triangle are congruent to three sides of another triangle, the two triangles are congruent.

Thus, the correct answer is: Option #2: a pair of triangles with three pairs of congruent sides.
