Based on the given information, can you conclude that βππ π β βπππ ? Explain. Given: Μ πΈπΉΜ Μ Μ β π»πΌΜ Μ Μ Μ , Μ πΈπΊΜ Μ Μ β π»π½Μ Μ Μ Μ < R β

You can take the given information and draw a figure like I did above. Now look at the congruent corresponding parts. They are, in order, a side, a side, and an angle. That would be SSA. Is there an SSA theorem or postulate for proving triangles congruent?
I believe that it is a Theorem because it is proven?

No. There is no SSA for proving triangles congruent. There is: AAS ASA SAS SSS There is no SSA.
Thanks for your help. Is that all I need to know? I'm not good in Geometry it's hard for me understand this kind of work.
This looks like it's a side angle side i'm not certain.
Since the information given is only SSA, and there is no SSA for proving congruence of triangles, then the conclusion is that the two triangles cannot be proved to be congruent.
