Side-Side-Side (SSS) postulate
Two triangles are congruent if they have 3 pairs of congruent, corresponding sides.
Side-Angle-Side Postulate (SAS)
Two triangles are congruent if they have 2 pairs of congruent, corresponding sides and their included angle is congruent.
Angle-Side-Angle Postulate (ASA)
Two triangles are congruent if they have 2 pairs of congruent, corresponding angles and their included side is congruent.
Angle-Angle-Side Postulate (AAS)
Two triangles are congruent if they have 2 pairs of congruent, corresponding angles and their non-included side is congruent.
Hypotenuse-Leg (Hy-Leg) Theorem
If two right triangles have their hypotenuses congruent and a pair of corresponding legs congruent, then the triangles are congruent.
Angle Bisector
A line segment drawn in a triangle is an angle bisector iff it bisects an angle of a triangle.
Altitude
A line segment drawn in a triangle is an altitude iff it is drawn from a vertex perpendicular to the opposite side.
Median
A line segment drawn in a triangle is a median iff it connects a vertex to the midpoint of the opposite side.
If a line _______ the vertex angle of an isosceles triangle, then the line is also the perpendicular bisector of the base.
Bisects

Perpendicular
If two lines intersect to form congruent adjacent angles, then the angles are _____ angles.
Right
