I'm looking at this theorem: SAS Similarity Theorem This theorem states that if an angle of one triangle is congruent to an angle of another triangle and the sides including though angles are in proportion, then the triangles are similar.

Directrix (directrix):

However, the option :SAS Theorem does not have Similarity in its name. Look in your text and determine if there is a theorem as the one stated above and what its title is. If you don't find it, then I agree with you on the AA Postulate. But, check your text for SAS Similarity Theorem first. And, check to see if there is such a thing as SAS Theorem in the text. @jessiegonzales

OpenStudy (jessiegonzales):

ok so SAS

Directrix (directrix):

Without knowing what is in your text, I am *not* saying that. The correct name for the theorem I cited is SAS Similarity Theorem, and that is not what is written as an option. I asked you to look in your book to see if there is a SAS Theorem listed. Not, SAS Postulate, but SAS Theorem. If you do not want to check this in your book, then take the AA route.
