The document discusses the Angle-Angle (AA) Criterion for triangle similarity. The AA Criterion states that if two angles in one triangle are congruent to two angles in another triangle, the triangles are similar. The document provides examples of applying the AA Criterion to determine if triangles are similar and asks questions about using the criterion.

CONCEPT

The Angle-Angle (AA) Criterion states that if two angles in one triangle B
are congruent to two angles in another triangle, the two triangles are E
similar triangles.
∠A ≅ ∠D and ∠B ≅ ∠E, so △ABC ∼  △DEF. A C D F
