Eureka Math Geometry Module 1 Lesson 26 Exit Ticket Answer Key

Identify the two triangle congruence criteria that do NOT guarantee congruence. Explain why they do not guarantee congruence, and provide illustrations that support your reasoning.
Answer:
Students should identify AAA and SSA as the two types of criteria that do not guarantee congruence. Appropriate illustrations should be included with their justifications.
