1 Triangle Sum Theorem The sum of the measures of the three angles of a triangle is 180º.

2 Triangle Sum Theorem The sum of the measures of the three angles of a triangle is 180º. No-Choice Theorem If two angles of one triangle are congruent to two angles of another triangle, then the third angles are congruent.

3 Theorem: If there exists a correspondence between the vertices of two triangles such that two angles and a nonincluded side of one are congruent to the corresponding parts of the other, then the triangles are congruent. (AAS)
